This reference topic applies to FQL v4. Go to this page for the latest FQL v10 reference topics.

Description

The GT function returns true if each specified value is greater than the ones following it, and false otherwise. The function takes one or more arguments; it always returns true if it has a single argument.

Types have an order of precedence. When comparing values of different types, they are ranked in the following order, from least to greatest.

Number (integers and decimals: 0.5 < 1 < 1.5 < 2)
Byte
String
Array (ordered lexically, like strings)
Object (ordered lexically, like strings)
Reference
Timestamp
Date
Boolean (false < true)
Null

This means that any Array is always greater than any Number.

Parameters

Parameter Type Definition and Requirements

Parameter	Type	Definition and Requirements
`value`	Any	A value to be compared.

value

Any

A value to be compared.

Returns

A Boolean value.

Examples

The following query returns true because the value 3 is greater than the value 2, and the value 2 is greater than the value 1:

client.query(
  q.GT(3, 2, 1)
)
.then((ret) => console.log(ret))
.catch((err) => console.error(
  'Error: [%s] %s: %s',
  err.name,
  err.message,
  err.errors()[0].description,
))

true

result = client.query(
  q.gt(3, 2, 1)
)
print(result)

True

result, err := client.Query(
	f.GT(3, 2, 1))

if err != nil {
	fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, err)
} else {
	fmt.Println(result)
}

true

try
{
    Value result = await client.Query(
        GT(3, 2, 1)
    );
    Console.WriteLine(result);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"ERROR: {e.Message}");
}

BooleanV(True)

System.out.println(
    client.query(
        GT(Value(3), Value(2), Value(1))
    ).get());

true

GT(3, 2, 1)

true
