How is x < y ???

Question

x = 'apircot'
y = 'banana'

if (x < y) and (x != 'apple'):
print(' probably apircot')

Answer 1

Python compares string lexicographically i.e using ASCII value of the characters.
the ASCII value of the start character of x variable is 'a' = 95
and the ASCII value of the start character of y variable is 'b' = 96
So x < y is true

Answer 2

This is also similar to the ordering of words in a dictionary.
