Here are the 4 inequality signs.


a < b ---> a is less than b

a \le b ---> a is less than or equal to b

a > b ---> a is greater than b

a \ge b ---> a is greater than or equal to b

For the second and fourth lines above, the two sides may or may not be equal.
For the first and third lines above, the two sides cannot be equal.
