In this tutorials, you will learn about the Relational Operations in C and their usage and examples. Relational Operations are mainly used to compare values, such as in the ‘if’ statements, which will be discussed later in this course.
Relational Operations in C with Example
The table below illustrates the Relational Operators in C, a brief description, and a simple example.
| Operator | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
 | To checks if the values of two operands are equal or not. | x == y |
| != | To checks if the values of two operands are equal or not. | x != y |
| > | To checks if the value of the left operand is greater than the value of the right operand. | x>y |
| < | To checks if the value of the left operand is less than the value of the right operand. | x |
| >= | To checks if the value of the left operand is greater than or equal to the value of the right operand. | x>=y |
| <= | To checks if the value of the left operand is less than or equal to the value of the right operand. | x<=y |
Example of Relational Operators in C
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x = 5, y = 10;
// == example
if (x == y)
printf("x is equal to y\n");
else
printf("x is not equal to y\n");
// != example
if (x != y)
printf("x is different than y\n");
else
printf("x is not different than y\n");
// > example
if (x > y)
printf("x is greater than y\n");
else
printf("x is not greater than y\n");
// < example
if (x < y)
printf("x is less than y\n");
else
printf("x is not less than y\n");
// >= example
if (x >= y)
printf("x is greater than or equal to y\n");
else
printf("x is not greater than or equal to y\n");
// <= example
if (x <= y)
printf("x is less than or equal to y\n");
else
printf("x is not less than or equal to y\n");
return 0;
}
Result
x is not equal to y x is different than y x is not greater than y x is less than y x is not greater than or equal to y x is less than or equal to y
