|| A IS NULL || all types || TRUE if expression A evaluates to NULL otherwise FALSE||
|| A IS NOT NULL || all types || TRUE if expression A evaluates to NULL otherwise FALSE||
|| A LIKE B || strings || TRUE if string A matches the SQL simple regular expression B, otherwise FALSE. The comparison is done character by character. The _ character in B matches any character in A(similar to . in posix regular expressions) while the % character in B matches an arbitrary number of characters in A(similar to .* in posix regular expressions) e.g. 'foobar' like 'foo' evaluates to FALSE where as 'foobar' like {{{'foo___'}}} evaluates to TRUE and so does 'foobar' like 'foo%'||
+ || NOT A LIKE B || strings || TRUE if string A matches the SQL simple regular expression B, otherwise FALSE||
|| A RLIKE B || strings || TRUE if string A matches the Java regular expression B(See [http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html Java regular expressions syntax]), otherwise FALSE e.g. 'foobar' rlike 'foo' evaluates to FALSE where as 'foobar' rlike '^f.*r$' evaluates to TRUE||
|| A REGEXP B || strings || Same as RLIKE ||
