What does <> mean on SQL

Question

I was looking for what the <> mean on sql syntax but it was hard to google for it since google removes my special characters.

Specifically I was trying to figure out what the following means:

... AND (s1.skips > 0 OR s1.fails <> 1 OR s2.skips > 0);

Is there any clear documentation talking about the <> clause?

Answer 1

Please have a look at the documentation.

Comparison Functions and Operators

Answer 2

Of course, it's the "not equal"-operator, same as !=, see manual
