Relational operators

Relational operators are used to compare two operands.

• The result of evaluation of a relational expression is a boolean constant i.e. 0 or 1
• The result of the relation expression is 1 if the specified condition is true else it is 0
• An expression that includes relation operator is termed as condition

There are six relational operators,

Example

Illustration of Relational operator

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
	int a;
	a = 2 < 3 != 2;
	printf("a=%d",a);
	return 0;
}

Output

a=1

Explanation

All the relational operators are having left to right associativity. Thus 2<3 is evaluated first and it returns 1 as it is true. Then 1 != 2 is done which is true, so the result is 1
