<=
is the less than or equal to operator . !>
is the not greater than operator . Why are there two different comparison operators that seem to do the same thing.
Is there any situation where one would be prefered over the other?
<= and > are comparison operators, not logical operators. ! is a logical operator (means NOT). When you combine ! and >, you're simply inverting a comparison operator, so your end result is the same.
Having said that, <= is the common form, so I'd say it's preferred, for readability if nothing else. I don't know if there's a performance benefit to either, but I doubt it.
Edit: Also, you didn't say which flavor of SQL you're dealing with. As @harryovers pointed out, that's a valid operator in MS-SQL, but it might not work everywhere.
我不明白您为什么要使用其中一个,但是!>
不在 ISO 标准中,基于此,我会说<=
是首选方式。
One reason to have the !> alternaive is to make it easy to put SQL inside XML. The less than sign introduces XML tags. If SQL with a < is included in either XML or HTML it would have to be escaped as <. A greater than sign doesn't mean anything special unless it's been preceded by a less than sign.
The !=
, !<
and !>
are not standard comparison operators and are only supported by few systems, SQL-Server being one: msdn: Comparison Operators (Transact-SQL) . MySQL also supports !=
but only that, not the other two.
The equivalent standard SQL comparison operators are <>
, >=
and <=
.
In all situations, I would prefer the standard. You don't know when you have to migrate your code to another platform (and have less errors to deal with.)
No, there's no difference. Only reason I can think of is to make it more human-readable in a certain context.
Eg for the same reason I'd use < 5
rather than <= 4
if there was a significance to the 5 representing some limit in the context.
When you say logical operators logical is AND
and OR
I've never seen !> I've seen <>
If you are referring to !=
and <>
they are the same.
