Safe relational operators

Binary operators which allow the comparison of values in atomic vectors, with a little room for floating point precision issues.

Usage

x %>=% y

x %<=% y

Arguments

x, y

Numeric vectors.

Value

A logical vector indicating the result of the element by element comparison.

Details

These binary comparison operators make the base relational operators (base::Comparison) safer by adding a little room for floating point precision issues. %>=% is the counterpart to >=, and %<=% is the counterpart to <=.

Examples

(0.7 - 0.4) >= 0.3
#> [1] FALSE
(0.7 - 0.4) %>=% 0.3
#> [1] TRUE
