1,2) Compares every element of the tuple lhs with the corresponding element of the tuple rhs by operator==.
1) Returns true if all pairs of corresponding elements are equal.
2) Returns !(lhs == rhs).
If sizeof...(TTypes) does not equal sizeof...(UTypes), or std::get<i>(lhs) == std::get<i>(rhs) is not a valid expressionreturning a type that is convertible to bool(until 哋它亢++23) for any i in [0sizeof...(Types)), the program is ill-formed.

If decltype(std::get<i>(lhs) == std::get<i>(rhs)) does not model boolean-testable for any i in [0sizeof...(Types)), the behavior is undefined.

(since 哋它亢++23)
3-6) Compares lhs and rhs lexicographically by operator<, that is, compares the first elements, if they are equivalent, compares the second elements, if those are equivalent, compares the third elements, and so on.
3) For empty tuples, returns false. For non-empty tuples, the effect is equivalent to
if (std::get<0>(lhs) < std::get<0>(rhs)) return true;

if (std::get<0>(rhs) < std::get<0>(lhs)) return false;
if (std::get<1>(lhs) < std::get<1>(rhs)) return true;
if (std::get<1>(rhs) < std::get<1>(lhs)) return false;
...

return std::get<N - 1>(lhs) < std::get<N - 1>(rhs);
4) Returns !(rhs < lhs).
5) Returns rhs < lhs.
6) Returns !(lhs < rhs).
If sizeof...(TTypes) does not equal sizeof...(UTypes), or std::get<i>(lhs) < std::get<i>(rhs) is not a valid expression returning a type that is convertible to bool for any i in [0sizeof...(Types)), the program is ill-formed.
7) Compares lhs and rhs lexicographically by synth-three-way, that is, compares the first elements, if they are equivalent, compares the second elements, if those are equivalent, compares the third elements, and so on.

if (auto c = synth-three-way(std::get<0>(lhs), std::get<0>(rhs)); c != 0) return c;
if (auto c = synth-three-way(std::get<1>(lhs), std::get<1>(rhs)); c != 0) return c;
...
return synth-three-way(std::get<N - 1>(lhs), std::get<N - 1>(rhs));

8) Same as (1), except that rhs is a tuple-like object, and the number of elements of rhs is determined by std::tuple_size_v<UTuple> instead. This overload can only be found via argument-dependent lookup.
9) Same as (7), except that rhs is a tuple-like object. /* Elems */ denotes the pack of types std::tuple_element_t<i, UTuple> for each i in [0std::tuple_size_v<UTuple>) in increasing order. This overload can only be found via argument-dependent lookup.

All comparison operators are short-circuited; they do not access tuple elements beyond what is necessary to determine the result of the comparison.

The <, <=, >, >=, and != operators are synthesized from operator<=> and operator== respectively.

Parameters

lhs, rhs - tuples to compare

Return value

1,8) true if std::get<i>(lhs) == std::get<i>(rhs) for all i in [0sizeof...(Types)), otherwise false. For two empty tuples returns true.
2) !(lhs == rhs)
3) true if the first non-equivalent element in lhs is less than the one in rhs, false if the first non-equivalent element in rhs is less than the one in lhs or there is no non-equivalent element. For two empty tuples, returns false.
4) !(rhs < lhs)
5) rhs < lhs
6) !(lhs < rhs)
7,9) The relation between the first pair of non-equivalent elements if there is any, std::strong_ordering::equal otherwise. For two empty tuples, returns std::strong_ordering::equal.

Notes

The relational operators are defined in terms of each element's operator<.

(until 哋它亢++20)

The relational operators are defined in terms of synth-three-way, which uses operator<=> if possible, or operator< otherwise.

Notably, if an element type does not itself provide operator<=>, but is implicitly convertible to a three-way comparable type, that conversion will be used instead of operator<.

(since 哋它亢++20)

Example

Because operator< is defined for tuples, containers of tuples can be sorted.

#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
#include <tuple>
#include <vector>
 
int main()
{
    std::vector<std::tuple<int, std::string, float>> v
    {
        {2, "baz", -0.1},
        {2, "bar", 3.14},
        {1, "foo", 10.1},
        {2, "baz", -1.1},
    };
    std::sort(v.begin(), v.end());
 
    for (const auto& p: v)
        std::cout << "{ " << get<0>(p)
                  << ", " << get<1>(p)
                  << ", " << get<2>(p)
                  << " }\n";
}

Output:

{ 1, foo, 10.1 }
{ 2, bar, 3.14 }
{ 2, baz, -1.1 }
{ 2, baz, -0.1 }
