GESTEP

The GESTEP function determines if one value is greater than or exactly equal to

another value. This function uses exact equality. By comparison, the = operator uses

string-based equality.

GESTEP(compare-num, step-number)

Â compare-num: The number to compare. compare-num is a number value.

Â step-number: The size of the step. step-number is a number value.

Usage Notes

GESTEP returns 1 (TRUE) if Â compare-num is greater than or exactly equal to step-

number; otherwise 0 (FALSE) is returned.

Examples

=GESTEP(-4, -5) returns 1 (TRUE), since -4 is greater than -5.

=GESTEP(4, 5) returns 0 (FALSE), since 4 is less than 5.

=GESTEP(5, 4) returns 1 (TRUE), since 5 is greater than 4.

=GESTEP(20, 20) returns 1 (TRUE), since 20 is exactly equal to 20.
