[xsl] Evaluating relational expressions
Subject: [xsl] Evaluating relational expressions From: "Streng, Jonathan D. (LNG)" <Jonathan.Streng@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 29 Oct 2001 12:04:08 -0500 |
> "Hello World!" > On pg. 391 of Michael Kay's book, "XSLT Programmer's Reference," a table > is > shown which uses min() & max() to help evaluate the expression M < N, when > M > & N are both node sets. This expression is stated to be true when min(M) < > max(N), yet, to me, this seems backwards. It seems more reasonable to say > M > < N is true when max(M) < min(N), the reverse of how the evaluation is > stated in the book. For example is: > > min({*1*,2,3,4,5}) < max({4,6,8,10,*12*}) = true? > or > max({1,2,3,4,*5*}) < min({*4*,6,8,10,12}) = false? > > min({*1*,2,3,4,5}) < max({7,9,11,13,*15*}) = true? > or > max({1,2,3,4,*5*}) < min({*7*,9,11,13,15}) = true? > > min({*4*,6,8,10,12}) < max({1,2,3,4,*5*}) = true? > or > max({4,6,8,10,*12*}) < min({*1*,2,3,4,5}) = false? > > min({*7*,9,11,13,15}) < max({1,2,3,4,*5*}) = false? > or > max({7,9,11,13,*15*}) < min({*1*,2,3,4,5}) = false? > > Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated!
