Relational operator less than in Java

Introduction

Relational operator Less Than (<) and the operator Less Than Equal to (<=) compares two variables for the relation less than or less than equal to.

< Relational Operator

a < b evaluates to true if a is less than b else false

Similarly,

a <= b evaluates to true if a is less than equal to b else false

Code Listing

//LessThanOperatorDemo.java
//www.TestingDocs.com

public class LessThanOperatorDemo {

 public static void main(String[] args) {

 int a = 10;
 int b = 20;

 if(a<b)
 {
 System.out.println("a is less than b");
 }
 else {
 System.out.println("a is not less than b");
 }
 System.out.println("The expression a < b evaluates to = " + (a<b));
 }
}

Sample Output

a is less than b
The expression a < b evaluates to = true
