The gt utility checks if the first value is strictly greater than the second value. It works with any comparable types, including numbers, strings, and Dates.

Implementation

View Source Code
ts
/**
 * Checks if the first argument is greater than the second argument.
 *
 * @example
 * ```ts
 * gt(5, 3); // true
 * gt(3, 5); // false
 * gt(5, 5); // false
 * ```
 *
 * @param a - The first argument to compare.
 * @param b - The second argument to compare.
 *
 * @returns `true` if `a` is greater than `b`, otherwise `false`.

export function gt(a: unknown, b: unknown): boolean {
  return typeof a === 'number' && typeof b === 'number' && a > b;
}

Features

  • Isomorphic: Works in both Browser and Node.js.
  • Versatile: Supports multiple data types.
  • Type-safe: Properly typed for comparable inputs.

API

ts
function gt(a: number, b: number): boolean;

Parameters

  • a: The value to compare.
  • b: The value to compare against.

Returns

  • true if a > b; otherwise, false.

Examples

Basic Usage

ts
import { gt } from '@vielzeug/toolkit';

gt(10, 5); // true
gt(5, 10); // false
gt(5, 5); // false
gt('b', 'a'); // true

Implementation Notes

  • Returns true if a > b.
  • Uses standard JavaScript comparison rules.
  • Throws nothing; safe for any comparable types.
