Operator - Test if first input is greater than second input.

Inputs

IN1 : ANY   First input
IN2 : ANY   Second input

Outputs

Q : BOOL    TRUE if IN1 > IN2

Remarks

Both inputs must have the same type. In FFLD language, the input rung (EN) enables the operation, and the output rung is the result of the comparison. In ILClosed"Instruction list" This is a low-level language and resembles assembly language, the GT instruction performs the comparison between the current result and the operand. The current result and the operand must have the same type.

Comparisons can be used with strings. In that case, the lexical order is used for comparing the input strings. For instance, "ABC" is less than "ZX" ; "ABCD" is greater than "ABC".
