Comments
In the first variant, the operator determines whether or not the first numeric parameter is greater
than the second numeric parameter. The operator will accept integer and fixed-point objects for
either parameter.
In the second variant, the operator determines whether or not the first text parameter is greater than
the second text parameter. The operator will accept string or name objects for either parameter.
PAL compares strings and names using the standard ASCII character sorting sequence including
case sensitivity. Therefore, the string
(Abc)
is less than the string
(abc)
.
