Hello, "<" means "less than", which means that the first number is less than the second: 2 < 5 ">" means "greater than", which means that the first number is greater than the second: 5 > 2 EDIT: Furthermore, in SMS language, <3 symbolizes a heart! ;o) “What is well conceived is clearly expressed, And the words to say it come easily.” Nicolas Boileau

Good evening, "<" is equivalent to "less than" (example: 3 < 4 means: 3 is less than 4) ">" is equivalent to "greater than" (example: 4 > 3 means: 4 is greater than 3) See you later -- Coffee is a beverage that makes you sleep when you don't drink it. Alphonse Allais

... and when you see A<>B it means A is different from B (less than or greater than, but not equal).  That said, this is not computing, but math (on the middle school curriculum). -- Retirement is nice! Especially in the Caribbean... :-) &#9787; Raymond &#9794;

Hello to you. So if I understand correctly, for example, a medical analysis. If the normal value for an analysis is 4 and the result obtained is 5.5, it will be written 5.5 > or 5.5 > 4. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thank you in advance.

Raymond PENTIER · Answer

"it will be written 5.5 > or 5.5 > 4" Errors! It will be written "> 4" indicating that the result found is greater than 4. "5.5 >" means nothing. "5.5 > 4" is obvious; we know very well that 5.5 is greater than 4. OK? Best regards. -- Retirement is great! Especially in the Caribbean... :-) ☻ Raymond ♂
