Compare with Python 3:
>>> None<0
Traceback (most recent call last):
Hello,
I discovered this strange property by accident:
Python 2.7.2 (default, Nov 21 2011, 17:25:27)
[GCC 4.6.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> None < 0
True
>>> None == 0
False
>>> None > 0
False
>>> int(None)
