We'll dig deeper into this a little later but, behind the scenes of Ruby, everything is evaluated as true or false. That's great for comparisons.

Let's see how a comparison works.

See that? We call == a comparison operator. It asks whether the value to its right is equal to the value on its left.

Psst: while we write from left to right, Ruby reads what's on the right first.

Whoops! Didn't we want to make a comparison? That doesn't look like the right operator.
