I see it too, it must be a typo. If you want, post a note, via the "Add
note" at the bottom of the page.

    ==  numeric equivalence
    eq  string equivalence
    >   numeric greater-than
    gt  string greater-than
    <   numeric less-than
    lt  string less-than
    !=  numeric non-equivalence
    ne  string equivalence    ## should be "string non-equivalence"


I have seen that page a hunderd times, and never noticed it :)
