Relational operators compare valueA and valueB and return
1 if
the test is true or
0 if the test is false. valueA and valueB can be
real numbers, expressions, or lists. For
= and ƒ only, valueA and
valueB also can be matrices or complex numbers. If valueA and
valueB are matrices, both must have the same dimensions.
Relational operators are often used in programs to control
program flow and in graphing to control the graph of a function
over specific values.

Relational operators are evaluated after mathematical functions
according to EOS rules (Chapter 1).
• The expression
2+2=2+3 returns 0. The TI-82 STATS
performs the addition first because of EOS rules, and then it
compares 4 to 5.
• The expression
2+(2=2)+3 returns 6. The TI-82 STATS
performs the relational test first because it is in parentheses,
and then it adds 2, 1, and 3.
