Talk:Iterator

I am just wondering why is there a ">" in the if-statement between name and lastName.

if(name > lastName){
     myIterator.remove();
 }

Maybe there is a special way of using the "great as" to find out if two Strings are equal in Java that I am not aware of but it would make more sense to me to do it like that:

if(name.equals(lastName){)
 myIterator.remove();
}
