The >
operator returns true
if the left operand is greater than the right operand, and false
otherwise.
The >
operator returns true
if the left operand is greater than the right operand, and false
otherwise.
x > y
The operands are compared using the same algorithm as the Less than operator, except the two operands are swapped. x > y
is generally equivalent to y < x
, except that x > y
coerces x
to a primitive before y
, while y < x
coerces y
to a primitive before x
. Because coercion may have side effects, the order of the operands may matter.
"a" > "b"; // false "a" > "a"; // false "a" > "3"; // true
"5" > 3; // true "3" > 3; // false "3" > 5; // false "hello" > 5; // false 5 > "hello"; // false "5" > 3n; // true "3" > 5n; // false
5 > 3; // true 3 > 3; // false 3 > 5; // false
5n > 3; // true 3 > 5n; // false
true > false; // true false > true; // false true > 0; // true true > 1; // false null > 0; // false 1 > null; // true undefined > 3; // false 3 > undefined; // false 3 > NaN; // false NaN > 3; // false
