relational operator

An operator that compares two values.

For example, the expression

x < 5

means x is less than 5. This expression will have a value of TRUE if the variable x is less than 5; otherwise the value of the expression will be FALSE.

Relational operators are sometimes called comparison operators. Expressions that contain relational operators are called relational expressions.
