# Comparison functions {#comparison-functions}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Comparison functions always return 0 or 1 (Uint8).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
The following types can be compared:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
- numbers
|
|||
|
- strings and fixed strings
|
|||
|
- dates
|
|||
|
- dates with times
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
within each group, but not between different groups.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For example, you can’t compare a date with a string. You have to use a function to convert the string to a date, or vice versa.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Strings are compared by bytes. A shorter string is smaller than all strings that start with it and that contain at least one more character.

## equals, a = b and a == b operator {#function-equals}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## notEquals, a ! operator= b and a <> b {#function-notequals}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## less, < operator {#function-less}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## greater, > operator {#function-greater}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## lessOrEquals, <= operator {#function-lessorequals}
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## greaterOrEquals, >= operator {#function-greaterorequals}
