Function smallerEq

Test whether value x is smaller or equal to y.

The function returns true when x is smaller than y or the relative difference between x and y is smaller than the configured epsilon. The function cannot be used to compare values smaller than approximately 2.22e-16.

For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise. Strings are compared by their numerical value.
