# basic_json::operator<=

```cpp
bool operator<=(const_reference lhs, const_reference rhs) noexcept,

template<typename ScalarType>
bool operator<=(const_reference lhs, const ScalarType rhs) noexcept;

template<typename ScalarType>
bool operator<=(ScalarType lhs, const const_reference rhs) noexcept;
```

Compares whether one JSON value `lhs` is less than or equal to another JSON value `rhs` by calculating
`#cpp !(rhs < lhs)`.

## Template parameters

`ScalarType`
:   a scalar type according to `std::is_scalar<ScalarType>::value`

## Parameters

`lhs` (in)
:   first value to consider 

`rhs` (in)
:   second value to consider 

## Return value

whether `lhs` is less than or equal to `rhs`

## Exception safety

No-throw guarantee: this function never throws exceptions.

## Complexity

Linear.

## Example

??? example

    The example demonstrates comparing several JSON types.
        
    ```cpp
    --8<-- "examples/operator__lessequal.cpp"
    ```
    
    Output:
    
    ```json
    --8<-- "examples/operator__lessequal.output"
    ```
