ge: Wasm text instruction - Content

The ge instructions, short for greater or equal, check if a number is greater than or equal to another number. If the first number is greater than or equal to the second number equal 1 will be pushed on to the stack, otherwise 0 will be pushed on to the stack.

The integer types have separate greater or equal instructions for signed (ge_s) and unsigned (ge_u) numbers.

(module
  (import "env" "log_bool" (func $log_bool (param i32)))
  (func $main
    ;; load `10` and `2` onto the stack
    i32.const 10
    i32.const 2

    i32.ge_u ;; check if `10` is greater than or equal to '2'
    call $log_bool ;; log the result
  )
  (start $main)
)

function log_bool(value) {
  console.log(Boolean(value));
  // Expected output: true
}

await WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming(fetch(url), {

Syntax

wat

;; load 2 numbers on to the stack
local.get $num
i32.const 2

;; check if $num is greater than or equal to '2'
i32.ge_u

;; if $num is greater than or equal to the `2`, `1` will be pushed on to the stack,
;; otherwise `0` will be pushed on to the stack.
