// check if a is less than b
A > B;
Here, > operator is the relational operator. It checks if A is greater than B or not.

Example Java
Relational Operators
// create variables
int a = 7, b = 11;
// value of a and b
System.out.println("a is " + a + " and b is " + b);
// == operator
System.out.println(a == b); // false
// != operator
System.out.println(a != b); // true
// > operator
System.out.println(a >
b); // false
// < operator
System.out.println(a <
b); // true
// >= operator
System.out.println(a >=
b); // false
// <= operator
System.out.println(a <=
b); // true
