Compare two integers given as strings.
Example
-
For a = "12" and b = "13", the output should be compareIntegers(a, b) = "less";
-
For a = "875" and b = "799", the output should be compareIntegers(a, b) = "greater";
-
For a = "1000" and b = "1000", the output should be compareIntegers(a, b) = "equal".
Hints

-
[input] string a A string representing a positive integer without leading zeroes.
Guaranteed constraints:
1 ≤ a.length ≤ 10.
-
[input] string b
A string representing a positive integer without leading zeroes.
Guaranteed constraints: 1 ≤ b.length ≤ 10
-
[output] string 'less' if int(a) < int(b), 'equal' if int(a) = int(b), and 'greater' if int(a) > int(b), where int(x) is equal to integer represented by the string x.
