Which operators can form a Boolean expression for comparisons like equal or not equal?

Relational operators are specifically designed to compare values and evaluate expressions to determine their relationships. These operators include distinctions such as "equal to" (==), "not equal to" (!=), "greater than" (>), "less than" (<), "greater than or equal to" (>=), and "less than or equal to" (<=). When used, they yield a Boolean result—either true or false—based on the comparison made. This is essential in programming and decision-making processes, as it allows for conditional statements and control flow based on these evaluations.

In contrast, math operators typically perform arithmetic calculations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, which do not directly provide a true/false context necessary for Boolean expressions. Logical operators, such as AND, OR, and NOT, operate on Boolean values, but they don’t compare values directly; instead, they combine the results of comparisons. Unary operators operate on a single operand and do not inherently produce Boolean expressions related to equality or inequality. Therefore, the function of relational operators directly aligns with the requirement for forming comparisons indicating equality and inequality.
