More details

Equivalent to the LT() function.

For string parameters, the comparison follows a lexicographical ordering. That is each character, ordered 0 to 9 and then A to Z, in the string is given a value. Character pairs are then evaluated against each other until one character is smaller than another.

Examples

<(5, 7) returns TRUE
