How to compare integers in apex

In Apex, comparison is a common operation that lets developers run different paths of code during execution. Apex provides comparison operators to handle various comparison scenarios. The following are the common operators used for comparison:

OperatorDescriptionExample
==Equal tox == y
!=Not equal tox != y
>Greater thanx > y
<Less thanx < y
>=Greater than or equal tox >= y
<=Less than or equal tox <= y

The following code snippet shows how to compare two numbers in apex using various operators:

In the above example:

  • The variables numb1, numb2 are Integer variables.
  • The == operator checks if the two numbers numb1 and numb2, have the same value.
  • The > operator checks if numb1 is greater than numb2.
  • The ! operator checks if numb1 is not equal to numb2.
  • The && operator is used to join two comparison statements, and all of them must be true for the overall expression to evaluate as true.
  • The || operator is used to combine two comparison statements, and at least one of them must be true for the overall expression to evaluate as true.
