Operators
<= (Subset Of)
FUNCTION: Tests for a Subset of
OPERAND TYPE: Compatible set types
RESULT TYPE: Boolean
REMARKS: When the operands =, <>, <, >, >=, or <= are of
simple types, they must be compatible types; however, if
one operand is of a real type, the other can be of an
integer type.
Strings are compared according to their extended ASCII
charactor set. Charactor type values are treated as
string types.
Packed strings can be compared if they have the same
number of components.
Pointers are equal only if they point to the same object.
Only equal, <, >, are valid pointer comparison operators.
Sets are compared according to its members. a = b is True
only if a and b contain exactly the same members; otherwise,
a <> b. a <= b is True only if every member of a is also a
member of b. a >= b is True only if every member of b is
also a member of a.
When using the IN operator, it will return true when the
value of the ordinal type operand is a member of the set
type operand.
