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
