Here is a REXX challenge

Why does this compare results in ok

ttr = '0000E0'
if ttr = '000000' then say 'ok'; else say 'ng'

And this one works and results in ng

ttr = '0000E0'
if ttr == '000000' then say 'ok'; else say 'ng'

If you don't use strict compares, you can get this nice one:

/* REXX */
a = '2e0'
b = '2ee'
c = '1e1'

say "a =" a;
say "b =" b
say "c =" c

if a > b then
  say 'a > b'
else
  say 'a ^> b'

if b > c then
  say 'b > c'
else
  say 'b ^> c'

if c > a then
  say 'c > a'
else
  say 'c ^> a'
