python compare strings

string_a = "banana"
string_b = "banana"
if string_a == string_b:
  print("TRUE")
else: 
	print("FALSE")
# in this case the console will print TRUE

a = str('Hello') #Assigning variables
b = str('World')

if a == b: # Checking to see if they are the same 
  print('False')

fruit1 = 'Apple'

print(fruit1 == 'Apple')
print(fruit1 != 'Apple')
print(fruit1 < 'Apple')
print(fruit1 > 'Apple')
print(fruit1 <= 'Apple')
print(fruit1 >= 'Apple')
