# Comparison operators Comparison operators work with boolean and integer values. * Equality: `==`, for booleans and integers Both sides of the equality operator may be optional, even of different levels, so it is for example possible to compare a non-optional with a double-optional (`??`). ``` 1 == 1 // is `true` 1 == 2 // is `false` ``` ``` true == true // is `true` true == false // is `false` ``` ``` let x: Int? = 1 x == nil // is `false` ``` ``` let x: Int = 1 x == nil // is `false` ``` ``` // Comparisons of different levels of optionals are possible. let x: Int? = 2 let y: Int?? = nil x == y // is `false` ``` ``` // Comparisons of different levels of optionals are possible. let x: Int? = 2 let y: Int?? = 2 x == y // is `true` ``` * Inequality: `!=`, for booleans and integers (possibly optional) Both sides of the inequality operator may be optional, even of different levels, so it is for example possible to compare a non-optional with a double-optional (`??`). ``` 1 != 1 // is `false` 1 != 2 // is `true` ``` ``` true != true // is `false` true != false // is `true` ``` ``` let x: Int? = 1 x != nil // is `true` ``` ``` let x: Int = 1 x != nil // is `true` ``` ``` // Comparisons of different levels of optionals are possible. let x: Int? = 2 let y: Int?? = nil x != y // is `true` ``` ``` // Comparisons of different levels of optionals are possible. let x: Int? = 2 let y: Int?? = 2 x != y // is `false` ``` * Less than: `<`, for integers ``` 1 < 1 // is `false` 1 < 2 // is `true` 2 < 1 // is `false` ``` * Less or equal than: `<=`, for integers ``` 1 <= 1 // is `true` 1 <= 2 // is `true` 2 <= 1 // is `false` ``` * Greater than: `>`, for integers ``` 1 > 1 // is `false` 1 > 2 // is `false` 2 > 1 // is `true` ``` * Greater or equal than: `>=`, for integers ``` 1 >= 1 // is `true` 1 >= 2 // is `false` 2 >= 1 // is `true` ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://max-daunarovich.gitbook.io/flow-network/introduction/operators/comparison-operators.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
