Greater

Usage

• x > y yields True if x is determined to be greater than y.
• > > yields True if the form a strictly decreasing sequence.

Notes

• Greater gives True or False when its arguments are real numbers.

• Greater does some simplification when its arguments are not numbers.

• For exact numeric quantities, Greater internally uses numerical approximations to establish numerical ordering. This process can be affected by the setting of the global variable $MaxExtraPrecision.

• See Section 1.5.6.
