Comparison Operators
Comparison operators are used to compare two values (or variables). This is
important in programming, because it helps us to find answers and make decisions.
The return value of a comparison is either 1 or 0 , which means true (1) or false
(0). These values are known as Boolean values, and you will learn more about them
in the Booleans and If..Else chapter.
In the following example, we use the greater than operator ( > ) to find out if 5 is
greater than 3:
Example
int x = 5;
int y = 3;
cout << (x > y); // returns 1 (true) because 5 is greater than 3
