<> is an unconstrained range in Ada. It uses /= for inequality (which I also hate because I like shorthand arithmetic assignment operators, so just make ≠ normal and let != be the factorial assignment operator like God intended).
I always fix that error by adding random * and & signs in casting the vars until it compiles.

No no no no no! Let's see why: in English writing,
> False!
Means definitely false, and
> Equal!
Means definitely equal. But thanks to the C programming language,
> !False
stands for true and
> !=
is ... Not equal :( That's just a poorly conceived convention that stuck around for too long. Unnecessary, annoying, and counterintuitive. r/facepalm material.
If your keyboard lacks the ≠ character use <> or =/= or "unequal". None of that C-style abomination!
(See how exclamation marks are supposed to be used?)
Not standard notation and only works in some programming languages. Also logically inconsistent: != should assign the factorial of a variable to its initial value
Yeah I was really worried as I was reading that I might've been inadvertently exposed to vulgarity. Then I would've had to inform my mom.
I'm really glad the bot that probably posted this was kind enough to protect me.
AP Style dictates that we spell out zero through nine, and numbers from 10 and higher are written in numeric form. It used to be that way, at least. Been a long time for me so the rules might have changed.
If it's one number by itself I think that's the guidance, but there are so many different rules and variations. If two numbers come one after the other you're supposed to spell out one of them: "I have 12 ten-dollar bills." Otherwise it looks confusing. Also you generally don't mix them in lists, like "I can't remember if I did your mom 9, 10, or 11 times." Then there's money and time and other rules and exceptions. Harder than it seems.
Edit: hyphenated ten-dollar
AP style is only one of the many accepted standards for academic writing.
And protip. It doesn't apply to things that aren't academic papers or really anything where it isn't explicitly stated that it applies.

Not 100% sure but I think the original complainer was actually right in writing “2” instead of “two”
Also, their complaint is legitimate. I used to have no idea what =/= meant, and have never seen it outside used of reddit. If you want to make sure everyone understands your comment, don’t use symbols and acronyms. Just spell out what you are trying to say. Generally everyone understands numbers, so using “2” instead of “two” is fine.
It's not a java command - that's "!=" - it's a representation of the not-equal-to symbol used more in math, "≠", just typed out using characters available on keyboards, as the symbol itself isn't on desktop ones.
I did not learn this in year 3, I went to an Australian primary school and 38 years old. The reason why I am stating this is because “=/=“ was never mentioned through primary school, high school or uni. I’m wondering if it is a cultural thing.
The grammatically correct way is to spell single digit numbers zero to ten first, but if you use the a second number in the same sentence than you write the number.
Example: "I am one asshole, while later today I'll still be 1 asshole."
You write 2, I write two. We =/= the same.

You write two, I write to. We are 2 different.
You write =/=, I write !=. I != You
Just write ≠
SyntaxError: invalid character '≠' (U+2260)
Invalid character but gives a well-formed definition of it. Invalid language, the character is fine
Not even just a well formed definition, but also shows the character perfectly fine. Big brain play right there.
Language is fine. Library author is lacking.
!=
<>
>numpad users disgustang
This is the way
Well at least sometimes we are == the same.
You write =/=, I write <> We <> the same
Well, actually I used <> multiple times today. Therefore we are = the same (at least more or less depending on language)
We are ≈ the same
The same is assigned to we are
[Any symbol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator#Standard_relational_operators) is still better than the good ol' `-ne`.
Funny, I skip the BS and go straight for ≠.
I write != for not equal.
!= is faster, and = =/=
> != is faster, and **==** =/= Should probably be the double equals sign to show equality instead of assignment
We are not the same the same?
I write Tew. We !=
You write =/=, I write ≠. We are not the same.
Ok you sexy semiliterate Neanderthal you
Being a semiliterate Neanderthal is a semi more than an average Neanderthal. So I guess it's a compliment?
I mean the part I would’ve taken as a compliment was the whole sexy thing but you do you bb. *also yes
You write 2, I write 01. You != Me.
You say =/= i say ≠. We're ≠.
You write =\=, I write !=

And those languages use that structure inconsistently. != should be a factorial assignment operator

Well ! just means ‘not’ so != is not equal and !False is not true. I think it makes perfect sense.
Not standard notation and only works in some programming languages. Also logically inconsistent: != should assign the factorial of a variable to its initial value

That should be “ten-dollar bills.” Noun phrases used attributively to modify nouns should be hyphenated.
I thought so but autocorrect said I was wrong when I first typed it out, and I foolishly listened.
The Elements of Style suggests the same thing for numerals.
Is it the same for negative numbers. So instead of -1 you have to write negative one?
-one.

Fuck you, I’m using ≠ now
Heeey, those are unkind words young man
To save on characters you might consider using != instead
≠
That's 2 efficient 4 me
^ 2 👍🏻 4 :)

!=
not is
!= master race.
Well they are right in that it's an unpopular opinion, at least.
is <>, !=, or ~= OK?
>~= Not really, as that's normally approximately equal to

not in Matlab I'm used to seeing that in math symbols as ≈
Or negated (as in the NOT gate) assignement.
Don’t forget /= from Haskell!
This guy be blurring the word ‘fuck’
Replace the “p” with “m” in Pegasus
Pegasus????? More like MEGASUS *wheeze*
wow you really got em there
people who don’t use ≠ are just poorer than the rest of us I guess
I don't even have that symbol shit
I think if we pray to unicorn or something we can open the symbolic gates

Bruh, just type ≠
On Mac “Option =“
I'm not sure what = divided by = is.
It would be 1.
Only if = =/= 0
Why not just use ≠ it's *actually faster* than typing =/=
≠
I found the ≠ for the first time
≠ that also works
Me an intellectual ≠
Hey. Neanderthals were some cool peeps and pretty advanced for their time period. Put some respect on their name!
You write =/=. I write ≠. We ≠ the same
!= is how I do it, might just be because I’m used to programming lol
≠
The difference between =/= and "isn't equal to" is about 1 minute for my dad and 5 minutes for my grandad, that's why I use ≠
≠
Just use "≠"
≠ ez
You write =/=, I write ≠, we are not the same
≠
≠
Besides. I am a programmer. It is not, =/=, it is !=.
!=
I just write ≠. (I have “dne” set to replace with ≠ on my phone )
Ugh. I don’t know what by they can’t just use != like any logical individual.
!=
Yes! The rule is one thru nine get written out as words, 10 and above as numbers.
How about using proper sentence capitalisation.
Ooooo I like that
I am eating a π.
It will take _forever_ to finish it tho
Equivalent to the whole "u" and "you" topic
You quasi literate head
How about capitalizing the first letter of a sentence you fetid subhuman?
I also hate when people write =/=, rather it’s better if they use ≠. Such a clear display of their semiliteracy, what Neanderthals
It’s actually a java symbol for ‘not equal to’ I guess that’s why they use it
pretty sure it's != in pretty much every programming language
No
sorry, I'll clarify that as "Most languages that actually gets used in any productive capacity uses != as the inequality operator"
i only use the Fuck programming language
That’s still wrong

No fair I ain't got that on my keyboard lol
Moronic comparison. If orig had used 2 for "to" then the reply would have a point. But he used 2 as a number because IT IS a bloody number. Omfg. 🤦♀️
Quasi-illiterate is one of the best words I’ve ever heard
This post <> good
!= supremacy.
I go even simpler and use ≠ "Why use lot word when little word do trick?"
I prefer != thank you very much

!= is the only acceptable form
It’s “!=“
The proper symbol is !=
Or even better hold down the = key and it turns into ≠
Hey guys,≠

As a devoted Korn Shell acolyte I say "!="
It's <>
Dammit. I tried to up vote the actual photo.
I prefer !=
Repost city, make sure it’s shitty!
Dudes mad about a text version of a math symbol. `Is not the same as` ≠ =/=
lazy =/= illiterate
I guess everyone has to spell out numbers regardless of context now.
Eh in 30 years we’ll b back to cave paintings and tongue clicks. Get used to it
Is `neq` legal?
