# --description--

The greater than operator (`>`) compares the values of two numbers. If the number to the left is greater than the number to the right, it returns `true`. Otherwise, it returns `false`.

Like the equality operator, greater than operator will convert data types of values while comparing.

**Examples**

```js
5   >  3   // true
7   > '3'  // true
2   >  3   // false
'1' >  9   // false
```

# --instructions--

Add the greater than operator to the indicated lines so that the return statements make sense.

# --hints--

`testGreaterThan(0)` should return "10 or Under"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(0) === '10 or Under');
```

`testGreaterThan(10)` should return "10 or Under"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(10) === '10 or Under');
```

`testGreaterThan(11)` should return "Over 10"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(11) === 'Over 10');
```

`testGreaterThan(99)` should return "Over 10"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(99) === 'Over 10');
```

`testGreaterThan(100)` should return "Over 10"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(100) === 'Over 10');
```

`testGreaterThan(101)` should return "Over 100"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(101) === 'Over 100');
```

`testGreaterThan(150)` should return "Over 100"

```js
assert(testGreaterThan(150) === 'Over 100');
```

You should use the `>` operator at least twice

```js
assert(code.match(/val\s*>\s*('|")*\d+('|")*/g).length > 1);
```

# --seed--

## --seed-contents--

```js
function testGreaterThan(val) {
  if (val) {  // Change this line
    return "Over 100";
  }

  if (val) {  // Change this line
    return "Over 10";
  }

  return "10 or Under";
}

testGreaterThan(10);
```

# --solutions--

```js
function testGreaterThan(val) {
  if (val > 100) {  // Change this line
    return "Over 100";
  }
  if (val > 10) {  // Change this line
    return "Over 10";
  }
  return "10 or Under";
}
```
