to strings, numbers, blobs or NULL and it always returns a result
with the same value as the operand.</p>"</tcl>

<p>Note that there are two variations of the equals and not equals
operators.  ^Equals can be either

<tcl>
hd_puts "[Operator =] or [Operator ==].
^The non-equals operator can be either
[Operator !=] or [Operator {&lt;&gt;}].
^The [Operator ||] operator is \"concatenate\" - it joins together
the two strings of its operands.
^The operator [Operator %] outputs the integer value of its left 
operand modulo its right operand.  In other words, the
operator [Operator %] works in SQLite the same as it does
in ANSI-C.</p>

<p>^The result of any binary operator is either a numeric value or 
NULL, except for the [Operator ||] concatenation operator which always 
evaluates to either NULL or a text value.</p>"
