Hi there! Today, we're entering the fascinating world of Java comparison operators. These operators play a vital role in controlling the flow of code by comparing values.

Our aim is to understand comparison operators and their use in Java programs. We'll explore various Java comparison operators and expand your knowledge through real-world examples.

Imagine piloting a starship in space. Here, destinations depend on evaluating conditions such as the distances to planets. These decisions boil down to comparisons, mirroring situations in programming. In Java, we utilize comparison operators to make such decisions.

Java has six comparison operators, including equal to (==), not equal to (!=), greater than (>), less than(<), greater than or equal to (>=), and less than or equal to (<=). They return true or false, also known as boolean values.

For instance, consider this comparison of a spaceship's speed with that of an asteroid:
