Is there an elegant way in Java to code:

if (10 < x < 20) {
   ...
}

i.e. “if x is between 10 and 20”

rather than having to write

if ((x > 10) && (x < 20)) {
   ...
}

Thanks!

    No. The < operator always compares two items and results in a boolean value, so you cannot chain them “elegantly”. You could do this though:

    if (10 < x && x < 20)
    {
        ...
    }
