Description

Two standard tables, itab and jtab, are created. itab is filled with three lines and assigned to jtab. An additional line is added to itab and the first relational expression returns the result that itab is greater than jtab. After the same line was added to itab, the second relational expression shows that both tables are the same. Another line is appended to itab and the third relational expression indicates the result that jtab is less than or equal to itab. Next, a further line is added to jtab, the content of which is different from the final line of itab. The next relational expression returns the result that itab is not equal to jtab. The first table field whose content is different for itab and jtab is col1 in the last line of the table, namely 30 for itab and 50 for jtab. In the last relational expression, itab is therefore less than jtab.
