access.logical.operators

Definition/Access: Verbs, Releases: AP and R83

Relational operators used in selection clauses.

Syntax

with {not} attr.name operator 'valuestring'

Description

a discussion of the relational and logical operators: =, eq, >, gt, <, lt, >=, ge, <=, le, #, no, not.

Logical operators are used in the selection criteria process. Each operator has an 'english' equivalent which may be used interchangeably with the 'symbol' form. When no operator is present, the default assumed is an 'equal to' (=).

= or eq equal to
# or no or not not equal to
> or gt or after greater than
< or lt or before less than
>= or ge greater than or equal to
<= or le less than or equal to

Example

sort entity with state eq 'ca'
list invoices with amount.due not '0'
list employees with birthday before '1/2/62'
list employees with age gt '21'
select entity with no zip
sort invoices with every amount > '0'
