To compare two numbers, a
and b
, using Boolean expressions in Python, you need to use the equality operator (==
). Given the values a = 12
and b = 8
, here's how the comparison works:
a = 12
b = 8
result = a == b
print(result) # This will output: False
So the correct completion of your code is:
a == b is false
This corresponds to the statement that a
(which is 12) is not equal to b
(which is 8), hence the result of the comparison is indeed false
.
