Comparisons

You can compare two values with comparison operators.

1. < (less than)
2. <= (less than or equal to)
3. > (greater than)
4. >= (greater than or equal to)
5. == (equal to)
6. ~= (not equal to)

Note that ~ is used for "not equal to" instead of ! like other languages.

The result of these operators will be a boolean.

-- false, because true is not false
print(true == false)

-- true
print("Hello" == "Hello")

-- true
print(10 > 2)

local x = 10
local y = 8

-- true
print(x ~= y)

y = y + 2

-- false
print(x ~= y)
