# tensorflow::ops::Less Class Reference

# tensorflow::ops::Less

`#include <math_ops.h>`

Returns the truth value of (x \< y) element-wise.

## Summary

*NOTE*: `https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.3/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/ops/less#classtensorflow_1_1ops_1_1_less` supports broadcasting. More about broadcasting [here](http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/user/basics.broadcasting.html)

Example:


```
x = tf.constant([5, 4, 6])
y = tf.constant([5])
tf.math.less(x, y) ==> [False, True, False]
```

<br />


```
x = tf.constant([5, 4, 6])
y = tf.constant([5, 6, 7])
tf.math.less(x, y) ==> [False, True, True]
```

<br />

Arguments:

- scope: A [Scope](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.3/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/scope#classtensorflow_1_1_scope) object

<br />

Returns:

- `https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.3/api_docs/cc/class/tensorflow/output#classtensorflow_1_1_output`: The z tensor.
