In addition to ð operator, Emojicode also offers other comparison operators to expand our use cases!
Hereâs a list of the comparison operators:
| Operator | Operation |
|---|---|
| âïž | Less than |
| â¶ïž | Greater than |
| âïžð | Less than or equal to |
| â¶ïžð | Greater than or equal to |
Like the ð operator, the listed operators all compare two values and returns a ð or ð value. For example:
We can read the expression above as a question, âis 2 less than 5?â Since the answer is yes, then ð is returned. Below are a few more examples to read through to understand the use of comparison operators:
Once youâre ready, tackle the steps in this exercise!
Instructions
Imagine weâre in a theme park that has different attractions. Each attraction has a height requirement (in centimeters) as shown by the variables hurlyWhirlyMinHeight and tinyHouseMaxHeight.
Weâll be adding in checks to see if our visitor can safely enjoy these attractions, but first, we need a visitor!
Type out your height (in centimeters) and use â¡ïž to assign it to a variable called myHeight.
As we can tell from hurlyWhirlyMinHeight, the Hurly-Whirly ride has a minimum height of 120 cm.
Create an ⪠statement that checks if myHeight is less than to hurlyWhirlyMinHeight. Inside the ðð block, add a ðâïž statement that prints out ð€You must be taller than 120cm to rideð€.
Our other attraction, the Tiny House has a maximum height of 214 cm (as seen by tinyHouseMaxHeight).
Create another ⪠statement that checks if myHeight is greater than or equal to tinyHouseMaxHeight. Inside the ðð block, add a ðâïž statement that prints out ð€You must be 214cm or shorter to enterð€.
