{{fbdoc item="desc"}}
	**##Operator >## (Greater than)** is a binary operator that compares an expression greater than another expression and returns the result - a boolean value in the form of an ##[[KeyPgInteger Integer]]##: negative one (-1) for true and zero (0) for false. The arguments are not modified in any way.

	This operator can be overloaded to accept user-defined types as well.

{{fbdoc item="ex"}}
	##[[KeyPgOpLessThanOrEqual Operator <=]]## (Less than or equal) is complement to **##Operator >## (Greater than)**, and is functionally identical when combined with ##[[KeyPgOpNot Operator Not]]## (Bit-wise Complement).

   if not (420 <= 69) then print "not (420 <= 69) is true."

{{fbdoc item="lang"}}
	- In the //[[CompilerOptlang -lang qb]]// dialect, this operator cannot be overloaded.
