Comparison Operators

In the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), the selection of comparison operators influences the efficiency and gas consumption of smart contracts. Opting for ` (greater than) over ≤ (less than or equal to) and ≥ (greater than or equal to) is notably more gas-efficient. This is due to the absence of direct opcode instructions for ≤ and ≥` in the EVM's design, which requires additional operations to achieve these comparisons.
