<h2>Syntax</h2>

<p><div class="box">

<dl>
<dt><nobr>(&lt;= <i>expr1 expr2</i> ...)</nobr></dt>
<dd><i>exprN</i> - a numeric expression<br>
returns - <a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> if the results of
comparing the expressions are all true,
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> otherwise</dd>
</dl>

</div></p>

<h2>Description</h2>

<p>The <nobr>'&lt;=' [less-than-or-equal]</nobr> function takes an arbitrary
number of numeric arguments. <nobr>It checks</nobr> to see if all the
numbers are monotonically <nobr>non-decreasing</nobr>.
<a href="t.htm">&nbsp;T&nbsp;</a> is returned if the arguments
are numerically, and monotonically <nobr>non-decreasing</nobr>,
<a href="nil.htm">NIL</a> is returned otherwise. <nobr>For two</nobr>
arguments, this has the effect of testing if 'expr1' is less than or equal
<nobr>to 'expr2'</nobr>.</p>

<h2>Examples</h2>

<pre class="example">
(&lt;= 1 1)            =&gt; T
(&lt;= 1 2)            =&gt; T
(&lt;= 2.0 1.99)       =&gt; NIL
(&lt;= 1 2 3 3)        =&gt; T
(&lt;= 1 2 3 3 2)      =&gt; NIL
(&lt;= "aa" "aa")      =&gt; <font color="#AA0000">error: bad argument type</font>
(setq a 12 b 99.9)  =&gt; 99.9  <font color="#008844">; set up A and B with values</font>
(&lt;= a b)            =&gt; T
(&lt;= b a)            =&gt; NIL
