lt

ReQL command: lt

Command syntax

value.lt(value[, value, ...]) → bool

Description

Compare values, testing if the left-hand value is less than the right-hand.

Example: Test if a player has scored less than 10 points.

r.table("players").get(1).g("score").lt(10).run(conn);

Example: Test if variables are ordered from highest to lowest, with no values being equal to one another.

int a = 20;
int b = 10;
int c = 15;
r.lt(a, b, c).run(conn);

This is the equivalent of the following:

r.lt(a, b).and(r.lt(b, c)).run(conn);
