Not Equal

Format: x != y

Arguments: [any] x, y Values to compare

Returns: (bool) True if x is not equal to y, false otherwise

Note: True is equal to all non-zero numbers. Text strings must match exactly, including case, to be equal. Lists and matrices are compared element-by-element.

Examples: 3!=3 = false

3!=4 = true

(3+I)!=(3+I) = false

"word"!="word" = false

"WORD"!="word" = true

0.1!=true = false

0!=true = true

IF(x!=3,y,z) = y if x is not 3, otherwise, z

upper(x)!=upper(y) = compares text strings x and y without regard for case
