In classic C++, you &#39;d write an operator overload for &lt;, &lt;=, == , !=, &gt;= and &gt;. In modern C++, you can get all that fun...en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/technologies/code_exchange/b/blog/posts/c-3-way-compareMon, 03 Nov 2025 18:37:11 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:09ee1ad4-e802-40b4-922d-0d48c1e2662dJan Cumps0<p>My&nbsp;[tag:Modern+C_2B002B00_]&nbsp;blogs were inspired by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.modernescpp.com/index.php/my-als-journey-31-31-the-end/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" data-e14adj="t">Rainer Grimm&#39;s modernes c++ articles</a>.
