(Less than or Equal)

Type: Function

Description: Less Than or Equal Function: Tests whether one object is less than or equal to another object.

The function ≤ returns a true test result (1) if the first argument is less than or equal to the second argument, or a false test result (0) otherwise. If one object is a symbolic (an algebraic or a name), and the other is a number or symbolic or unit object, ≤ returns a symbolic comparison expression that can be evaluated to return a test result.

For real numbers and binary integers, “less than or equal” means numerically equal or smaller (1 is less than 2). For real numbers, “less than or equal” also means equally or more negative (–2 is less than –1). For strings, “less than or equal” means alphabetically equal or previous (“ABC” is less than or equal to “DEF”; “AAA” is less than or equal to “AAB”; “A” is less than or equal to “AA”). In general, characters are ordered according to their character codes. This means, for example, that “B” is less than “a”, since “B” is character code 66, and “a” is character code 97.

For unit objects, the two objects must be dimensionally consistent and are converted to common units for comparison. If you use simple temperature units, the calculator assumes the values represent temperature and not differences in temperatures. For compound temperature units, the calculator assumes temperature units represent temperature differences. For more information on using temperature units with arithmetic functions, refer to the entry for +.
