Greater Than or Equal To (>=) Comparison Operator

Summary

Returns true if the left operand is greater than or equal to the right operand.

Syntax

expression1 >= expression2

Parameters

expression1: Any legal expression.
expression2: Any legal expression.

Description

The "greater than or equal to" operator compares the values of two expressions. If the expression on the left evaluates to a value that is greater than or equal to the evaluated value of the expression on the right, the "greater than or equal to" operator returns true; otherwise, the operator returns false.

If either expression has a JavaScript type (such as symbols declared with var, function, or external), the "greater than or equal to" operator will additionally - at runtime - convert the values of the expressions to the same type before comparing the values of the results.

Examples

Comparing Values

import System;
 
int a = 1, b = 1, c = 2, d = 3;
Console.log(a >= b); // true
Console.log(b >= c); // false
Console.log(d >= c); // true

Comparing Values in an 'if' statement

import System;
 
int x = 2;
 
if (x >= 1) {
    Console.log("x is greater than or equal to 1");
}
else {
    Console.log("x is not greater than or equal to 1");
}
