Which operator checks for equality between two values?

• A. Not equal to
• B. Greater than
• C. Equal to
• D. Less than

Answer: (C)

Equality checking is done with the equal to operator. It compares two values and returns true when they are the same, which is exactly what you need to decide if two things match in a condition (for example, if a == b). The other options perform different comparisons: not equal to checks if they are different, greater than checks if the first value is larger, and less than checks if the first value is smaller. So the operator that checks for equality between two values is the equal to operator.
