title: Symbol equivalent to NEQ, LSS, GTR, etc. in Windows batch files
body: <p>In batch I always use <code>==</code> when using the <code>if</code> command. (For example: <code>if "19"=="3" echo My computer doesnt know maths</code>)</p>
  
  <p>What about for all of the others (<code>LSS</code>, <code>LEQ</code>, <code>NEQ</code>, etc.)? Isn't there something like <code>!=</code> for <code>NEQ</code>, or am I thinking Unix?</p>
  
  <p>The reason I want to use symbols is because I thought someone had said for either text or numbers symbols were more efficient than using the text variants.</p>
  
  <p>Either way, I'd still like to know. Thanks.</p>
