<h2>Syntax</h2>
<p><div class="box">
<dl>
<dt><nobr>(> <i>expr1 expr2</i> ...)</nobr></dt>
<dd><i>exprN</i> - a numeric expression<br>
returns - <a href="t.htm"> T </a> if the results of
comparing the expressions are all true,
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> otherwise</dd>
</dl>
</div></p>
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>The <nobr>'>' [greater-than]</nobr> function takes an arbitrary number
of numeric arguments. <nobr>It checks</nobr> to see if all the numbers are
monotonically decreasing. <a href="t.htm"> T </a> is returned if
the arguments are numerically, and monotonically decreasing,
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> is returned otherwise. <nobr>For two</nobr>
arguments, this has the effect of testing if 'expr1' is greater than
'expr2'.</p>
<h2>Examples</h2>
<pre class="example">
(> 1 1) => NIL
(> 1 2) => NIL
(> 2.0 1.99) => T
(> 3 2 1) => T
(> 3 2 2) => NIL
(> "aa" "aa") => <font color="#AA0000">error: bad argument type</font>
(setq a 12 b 99.9) => 99.9 <font color="#008844">; set up A and B with values</font>
(> a b) => NIL
(> b a) => T
