numpy.core.defchararray.greater

numpy.core.defchararray.greater(x1, x2) [source]

Return (x1 > x2) element-wise.

Unlike numpy.greater, this comparison is performed by first stripping whitespace characters from the end of the string. This behavior is provided for backward-compatibility with numarray.

Parameters:	x1, x2 : array_like of str or unicode Input arrays of the same shape.
Returns:	out : ndarray or bool Output array of bools, or a single bool if x1 and x2 are scalars.
