If something is "less than equal" to something else, is it also "less than or equal" to it?

Ya you fucking autist

>>59074764
Lemme rephrase the question: is the comparison operator "less than equal" the same as "less than or equal to"?

A = A, yes.

There is no such thing as "less than equal". It sounds like it would mean the same as "less than", but it most likely is a corruption of "less than or equal", especially in contexts where it is expressed as a less than sign followed by an equal signs.

That's exactly and precisely what it means, and nothing else. I'm pretty sure the latter is the proper name.

If we take "less than equal" to literally mean a less than (<) and equal (=), then we get <=, which would denote a "less than or equal to" comparison.

However, this could be interpreted differently, no? If something is less than equal to a quantity, then it can be less than, but NOT equal to that quantity. In other words, A must be less than B, otherwise A is not less than the same, or the equivalent of B.

>>59074764
Yes.
(A) => (A or B)
is always true.

Here A := (x<a) and B := (x=a)
>>
>>59076468
But it doesn't mean less than equal
Just like += doesn't mean plus equal
and ++ is not adding an +

Well, that's what the prompt said. No symbols were given.

Something can't be simultaneously less than and equal to something else, which led me to believe that it was a typo.
>>
>>59074764
"Less than equal" means "not equal but less than". "Less than or equal" is different in that it is possible to be either equal or less.
>>
>>59074867
what is the "less than equal" operator?
isn't it just "less than" ?
>>
>>59074764
less than equal is the same as less than you mongodb user
>>
>>59080226
>less than equal is the same as less than
3>3 is false 3>=3 is true.

You are a fucking retard.
>>
>>59080273
"less than equal" literally means "not equal" aka "<>" or "!="


You're probably some retard that confuses x is less than or equal to y with x is less than y or x is equal to y both of which are equivalent. Why are you even asking such a retarded question?
>>
>>59074764
Less than equal means it has to be less.
If you put an 'or' in there obviously it changes.

a < (a == b) iff 0 <= a = b < 1
