Relational operators compare operands quantitatively, using operators like less than, greater than, and not equal to. It provides many convenient ways for creating vectors, matrices, and multidimenstional arrays. Direct vector and matrix operations are usually much faster compared to process scalars with loops. If we keep the same logic as above while varying the value of a and b, but knowing that c is the matrix product and d is the element by element matrix multiplication.
