# Class::Trait::Lib::TComparable(3pm)

Trait for adding comparison abilities to your object

## NAME

TComparable - Trait for adding comparison abilities to your object

## DESCRIPTION

This trait gives your object a wide range of comparison abilities through its overloading of the \<=\> operator.

## SUB-TRAITS

- **TEquality**

  ## REQUIRES

- **compare ($left, $right)**

  This method should return -1 if `$left` is less than `$right`, 0 if `$left` is equal to `$right`, and 1 if `$left` is greater than `$right`.

## OVERLOADS

- **\<=\>**

  ## PROVIDES

- **equalTo ($left, $right)**

  This fufills the requirement of the sub-trait TEquality.
