Introduction and Lesson Overview

Greetings! Today, we're studying comparison operators in Kotlin, which are vital for decision-making in coding. Through engaging examples with different data types, we'll grasp the power of these operators. Let's begin our exploration!

Understanding Comparison Operators

Imagine a daily competitive event where we judge who is taller or faster. Replace these with "greater," "lesser," "equal," or "not equal," and you've got comparison operators! Kotlin uses six basic ones:

  1. Equal to (==)
  2. Not equal to (!=)
  3. Greater than (>)
  4. Less than (<)
  5. Greater than or equal to (>=)
  6. Less than or equal to (<=)

Let's explore these through simple examples:

Comparing 5 and 10 using these operators produces boolean values (true or false).
