In PHP how do i write: IS NOT SMALLER THAN

Question

For example: a is not smaller than b

How do i write this ?

Answer 1

if ($a >= $b) 

if !($a < $b)

Answer 2

If a is not smaller than b, a is either greater than or equal to b so:

$a >= $b

Answer 3

a >= b

Assuming that a and b are guaranteed to be comparable.

Answer 4

!($a<$b)

Or simply

$a>=$b

Answer 5

Having an exclamation point outside of the condition causes a syntax error, doesn't it?

if(!($a < $b))

"IF NOT A SMALLER THAN B"

Makes the most linguistic sense compared to their question.

Answer 6

if( $a >= $b ) {
    echo $a . " is not smaller than " . $b;
} else {
    echo $a . " is smaller than " . $b;
}
