Alright, sports fans! The most commonly available language supporting:
(value relop value relop value)
is indeed (TA TA!) the Korn Shell! (evidenced by the following script)
| Script started on Sun Oct 26 12:32:45 1986
| $ if ((2>1>0)); then echo true; else echo false; fi
| true
| $ if ((1>1>0)); then echo true; else echo false; fi
| false
| $ if ((1>1>1)); then echo true; else echo false; fi
| false
| $ if ((2>1>1)); then echo true; else echo false; fi
| false
| script done on Sun Oct 26 12:35:04 1986
The first person who correctly explains this behavior will have $2.56
donated in their name to the Steinman Charitable Beer Trust.
(Just when you thought this silly subject had died out!)
