| 7 | 3 | The not equal bigramm `<>` (consisting of [[Less than|<, the less than symbol]], followed by [[Greater than|>, 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 | 7 | 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)`. | |
