We can also compare the order of quantities using the rich comparison operators. Use < to determine if the first argument is less than the second:

>>> g < 30
True

Likewise, use > to determine if the first is greater than the second:

>>> g > 30
False

You can test less-than or equal-to with <=:

>>> g <= 20
True

We can use the greater-than or equal-to with >= ,shown as follows:

>>> g >= 20
True

If you have experience with relational operators from other languages, then Python's operators are probably not surprising at all. Just remember that these operators are comparing equivalence, not identity, a distinction we'll cover in detail in coming chapters.
