String literal reference example:

D lang syntax
RawWrangletrue
Typeref
showNotetrue
WrangleTextderive type:single value:stringlessthanequal('a','a') as:'stringCompare'

stringlessthanequal('a','a')

Output: Returns true since both values are the same.

String literal reference example:

D lang syntax
RawWrangletrue
Typeref
showNotetrue
WrangleTextderive type:single value:stringlessthanequal('a','b') as:'stringCompare'

stringlessthanequal('a','b')

Output: Returns true since a evaluates to be less than b.

String literal reference example:

D lang syntax
RawWrangletrue
Typeref
showNotetrue
WrangleTextderive type:single value:stringlessthanequal('abc','x') as:'stringCompare'

stringlessthanequal('abc','x')

Output: Returns true since the first letter of the first string is less than the first letter of the second string.

Column reference example:

D lang syntax
RawWrangletrue
Typeref
showNotetrue
WrangleTextderive type:single value:stringlessthanequal(string1,string2) as:'stringCompare'

stringlessthanequal(string1,string2)

Output: Returns the evaluation of string1 column values being greater than string2 column values.
