[Some mathematical expression] [Some other mathematical expression] (greater than), or

[Some mathematical expression] [Some other mathematical expression] (less than), or

[Some mathematical expression] [Some other mathematical expression] (not equal), or

[Some mathematical expression] [Some other mathematical expression] (greater than or equal), or

[Some mathematical expression] [Some other mathematical expression] (less than or equal).

The first three are strict inequalities. If the sense of the inequality is the same for all values of the variables for which its members are defined, then the inequality is called an "absolute" or "unconditional" inequality. If the sense of an inequality holds only for certain values of the variables involved, but is reversed or destroyed for other values of the variables, it is called a "conditional" inequality.
