go relational operators

Go Relational Operators

In Go, relational operators are used to compare values and determine the relationship between them. Here are the relational operators in Go:

  1. Equal to (==): The equal to operator checks if two values are equal. It returns true if the values are equal, and false otherwise.

  2. Not equal to (!=): The not equal to operator checks if two values are not equal. It returns true if the values are not equal, and false otherwise.

  3. Greater than (>): The greater than operator checks if the left operand is greater than the right operand. It returns true if the condition is true, and false otherwise.

  4. Less than (<): The less than operator checks if the left operand is less than the right operand. It returns true if the condition is true, and false otherwise.

  5. Greater than or equal to (>=): The greater than or equal to operator checks if the left operand is greater than or equal to the right operand. It returns true if the condition is true, and false otherwise.

  6. Less than or equal to (<=): The less than or equal to operator checks if the left operand is less than or equal to the right operand. It returns true if the condition is true, and false otherwise.

These operators are commonly used in conditional statements and loops to control the flow of the program based on the comparison results.

For example, consider the following code snippet:

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    x := 5
    y := 10

    if x == y {
        fmt.Println("x is equal to y")
    } else if x < y {
        fmt.Println("x is less than y")
    } else {
        fmt.Println("x is greater than y")
    }
}

In this example, the program compares the values of x and y using the relational operators. Based on the comparison results, it prints the corresponding message.
