Comparison Operators (moved to Chapter 5)
The comparison operators =, /=, <, <=, >, and >= were formerly
documented here as number functions. Because they compare strings as well
as numbers, they are general comparison predicates and are now defined in
chapter 5, "Data and Control Flow", next to eq and equal. See "The
Comparison Operators , /, <, <=, >, >=" and the individual Function Entries
there. Their numeric behaviour follows "Normative Rules: Number Tower and
Division".
