Scala Long <(x: Long) method

In Scala, Long is a 64-bit signed integer, which is equivalent to Java’s long primitive type. The <(x: Long) method is utilized to return true if this value is less than x, false otherwise.

Method Definition – def <(x: Long): Boolean

Returns – Returns true if this value is less than x, false otherwise.

Example #1:

// Scala program to explain the working
// of Long <(x: Long) method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Applying <(x: Long) function
        val result = (12.toLong).<(8:Long)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

false

Example #2:

// Scala program to explain the working
// of Long <(x: Long) method

// Creating object
object GfG
{

    // Main method
    def main(args:Array[String])
    {

        // Applying <(x: Long) function
        val result = (5.toLong).<(13:Long)

        // Displays output
        println(result)

    }
}

Output:

true
