Relational Operators in JAVA

Relational operators in JAVA are the binary operator, as we know know binary operator take two parameter .For comparing values of variables ad literals Java provided relational operators. Relational operators relate a given value with several possible values of a variable . The result of the relational operators help to make branching iterating a block and to terminate the block statement

Relational operator returns boolean i.e true or false

==            equal to

!=             not equal to

>               greater than

>=            greater than equal to

<              less  than

<=            less than equal to

for instance/example

int a = 25;

int b=75;

double x=35.87;

double x=85.87;

char c1='b';

char c2='c';

..............................................

a=b    false

a!=b   true

a<b    true

x>y    false

c1==c2  false

35==10 false

...............................................

Example :

class RelationalOperatorDemo{

 
    public static void main(String[] args){
        int firstVar = 2;
        int secondVar= 9;
        if(firstVar == secondVar)
            System.out.println("firstVar == secondVar");
 
        if(firstVar != secondVar)
            System.out.println("firstVar != secondVar");
 
        if(firstVar > secondVar)
            System.out.println("firstVar > secondVar");
 
        if(firstVar < secondVar)
            System.out.println("firstVar < secondVar");
 
        if(firstVar <= secondVar)
            System.out.println("firstVar <= secondVar");
    }
}

The Output will be 

firstVar != secondVar
firstVar <  secondVar
firstVar <= secondVar
