Comparison Operators in Python

TL ; DR:

• When writing if statements, we usually compare two values using comparison operators:

  age = 10
  if age < 15:
      print("You are not allowed.")
  else:
      print("Have fun!")
  

  
  

Full lesson:

When writing if statements, we usually compare two values using one or more comparison operators:

For example:

10 == 10 # Evaluates to True
3 < 2 # Evaluates to False
15 >= 15 # Evaluates to True
17 != 12 # Evaluates to True

We usually use these operators with variables:

a = 10
b = 15

if a == b:
    print("a is equal to b")

if a < b:
    print("a is less than b")

The first condition is not satisfied since 10 == 15 evaluates to False.

The second condition is satisfied since 10 < 15 evaluates to True.

The code above prints "a is less than b".
