It compares the ASCII code of the first character(letter) in words b=98 s=115 So s>b So it returns True If the first character is the same , it compares second character(and so on) so 'su'<'sv' You can get the ASCII code of a letter using ord() eg: ord("a") would give 97 And the letter associated with ASCII code can be retrieved using chr() eg: chr(100) would give "c" capital letters come before simple letters in ASCII table so "S"<"s" ASCII table is available in http://www.asciitable.com/ or Google it 😀

alphabetically, "banjoi" comes before "sanjo" therefore it is the lesser of the two.
