Inequality Operators
All inequality operators return logical values (either 0/false or 1/true).
The magnitude of complex operands is used by all inequality operators.
| <, <=, >, >=, ~=, == | Scalar | Row Vector | Column Vector | Matrix |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Real Scalar | Returns a true or false value (1 or 0) based on whether the inequality is true or false. | Returns a vector the same size as the row vector, populated with true or false (1 or 0) values based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the vector. | Returns a vector the same size as the column vector, populated with true or false (1 or 0) values based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the vector. | Returns a matrix the same size as the matrix, populated with true or false values (1 or 0) based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the matrix. |
| Row Vector | Returns a vector the same size as the row vector, populated with true or false values (1 or 0) based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the vector. | Requires the vectors to be the same size. Returns a vector the same size as the vectors, populated with true or false (1 or 0) values. The values are based on an entity-wise comparison. | ||
| Column Vector | Returns a vector the same size as the column vector, populated with true or false (1 or 0) values based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the vector. | Requires the vectors to be the same size. Returns a vector the same size as the vectors, populated with true or false values (1 or 0). The values are based on an entity-wise comparison. | ||
| Matrix | Returns a vector the same size as the matrix, populated with true or false values (1 or 0) based on whether the inequality is true or false for each entity in the matrix. | Requires the matrices to be the same size. Returns a matrix the same size as the matrices, populated with true or false values (1 or 0). The values are based on an entity-wise comparison. |
Examples
2 < 4
ans = 1
[4 5 7]>=[6 4 2]
ans = [0 1 1]
[5 7; 3 2] ~= [5 2; 6 3]
ans = [0 1; 1 1]Invalid examples:
[3 5 7] <= [4; 7; 2]
[4 3; 6 4] == [3 4]
