[null,null,["Last updated 2023-12-06 UTC."],[],["The `lt()` function checks if the first number (`left`) is less than the second number (`right`). It takes two numerical arguments, `left` and `right`. If `left` is less than `right`, the function returns 1; otherwise, it returns 0. The examples demonstrate the usage in both JavaScript and Python, showcasing that `5 less than 10` yields 1 and `10 less than 5` yields 0.\n"],null,[]]
