compare function in python code example

Example 1: cmp() python

Syntax:
cmp(a, b)
Parameters:
a and b are the two numbers in which the comparison is being done. 
Returns:
-1 if a<b

0 if a=b

1 if a>b

Example 2: comparison python 3

#!/usr/bin/python3

a = 21
b = 10

if ( a == b ):
   print ("Line 1 - a is equal to b")
else:
   print ("Line 1 - a is not equal to b")

if ( a != b ):
   print ("Line 2 - a is not equal to b")
else:
   print ("Line 2 - a is equal to b")

if ( a < b ):
   print ("Line 3 - a is less than b" )
else:
   print ("Line 3 - a is not less than b")

if ( a > b ):
   print ("Line 4 - a is greater than b")
else:
   print ("Line 4 - a is not greater than b")

a,b = b,a #values of a and b swapped. a becomes 10, b becomes 21

if ( a <= b ):
   print ("Line 5 - a is either less than or equal to  b")
else:
   print ("Line 5 - a is neither less than nor equal to  b")

if ( b >= a ):
   print ("Line 6 - b is either greater than  or equal to b")
else:
   print ("Line 6 - b is neither greater than  nor equal to b")

Example 3: compare string in python

a=input()
b=input()  #reading two strings from user
c1=0
c2=0
#using for loop
for i in a:
  c1=+1
for j in b:
  c2=+2
return c1>c2 #shows true if len of string a is grater than b else it will show false
return c1==c2 #shows true if len of a and b are same
