The test operators are listed
near the bottom of the
Built-in
menu.
Relational operators let you define a conditional test that compares
two values. The values can be numbers, expressions, lists, or
matrices (but they must match in type and dimension).
Operator True if: Example
>
Greater than
a>8
<
Less than
a<0
Greater than or equal to
a+b
100
Less than or equal to
a+6
b+1
=
Equal
list1=list2
ƒ
Not equal to
mat1
ƒ
mat2
Boolean operators let you combine the results of two separate tests.
Operator True if: Example
and
Both tests are true
a>0 and a
10
or
At least one test is true
a
0 or b+c>10
xor
One test is true and the
other is false
a+6<b+1 xor c<d
The
not
function changes the result of a test from true to false and
vice versa. For example:
not x>2
is true if
x
2
false if
x>2
Note:
If you use
not
from the Home screen, it is shown as
~
in the
history area. For example,
not x>2
is shown as
~(x>2)
.
Conditional Tests
Conditional tests let programs make decisions. For example,
depending on whether a test is true or false, a program can
decide which of two actions to perform. Conditional tests are
used with control structures such as
If...EndIf
and loops such
as
While...EndWhile
(described later in this chapter).
