# Function largereq

Test whether value x is larger or equal to y.

The function returns true when x is larger 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.


## Syntax

```js
math.largereq(x, y)
```

### Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`x` | Number | BigNumber | Boolean | Unit | String | Array | Matrix | First value to compare
`y` | Number | BigNumber | Boolean | Unit | String | Array | Matrix | Second value to compare

### Returns

Type | Description
---- | -----------
Boolean | Array | Matrix | Returns true when the x is larger or equal to y, else returns false


## Examples

```js
var math = mathjs();

math.larger(2, 1 + 1);         // returns false
math.largereq(2, 1 + 1);       // returns true
```
