This is not it.
Then you could always do something like a.myOp!"<"(b) and a.myOp!">="(b) if you still want to have the operator in there somewhere. You can name the functions whatever you want. You just can't use overloaded operators for it, since it would not be in line with what the operators are supposed to mean and be used for. - Jonathan M Davis
