Underscore.js _.lt() Method

The _.lt() Method checks whether each argument is lesser than its next argument.

Syntax:

_.lt( val1, val2, ..., valn );

Parameters: This method takes n values to operate on them.

Return Value: This method returns a Boolean value.

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the underscore.js contrib library to be installed.

underscore.js contrib library can be installed using:

npm install underscore-contrib –save

Example 1: In this example, we will see the use of  _.lt() method.

javascript

// Defining underscore contrib variable
const _ = require('underscore-contrib');
let lesser = _.lt(1, 4);
console.log("Each argument is lesser than its next argument :", lesser);

Output:

Each argument is lesser than its next argument : true

Example 2: In this example, we will see the use of  _.lt() method.

javascript

// Defining underscore contrib variable
const _ = require('underscore-contrib');
let lesser = _.lt(1, 4, 9);
console.log("Each argument is lesser than its next argument :", lesser);

Output:

Each argument is lesser than its next argument : true

Example 3: In this example, we will see the use of _.lt() method.

const _ = require('underscore-contrib');
let lesser = _.lt(1, 4, 4);
console.log("Each argument is lesser than its next argument :", lesser);
