7+The not equal bigramm `<>` (consisting of [[Less than|&lt;, the less than symbol]], followed by [[Greater than|&gt;, the greater than symbol]]) is used to compare two values. The binary operator evaluates to [[false and true|true]], if both values differ from each other.

11+Note, when the [[Equal|equal operator]] has been overloaded for a custom type, but unequal does not have its own (explicit) definition, [[FPC]] will assume `x <> y` is the same as `not (x = y)`.
