Comparison:The equal sign = is also used in the comparison operators:
a==b , denotes equality comparison between the values of the expressions a and b .
a~=b , denotes inequality comparison between the values of the expressions a and b :
a<=b and a>=b denotes ordering comparison between the values of the expressions a and b :

    a = sin(3.2)
    M = [2.1,3.3,8.5;7.6,6.7,6.9;0,6.3,8.8];
    [u,s] = schur(M)
    [1:10] == 4 
    1~=2
