Comparisons are arithmetic if both ARGs are numbers, else lexicographical. Pattern matches return the string matched between \( and \) or null; if \( and \) are not used, they return the number of characters matched or 0. -Exit status is 0 if EXPRESSION is neither null nor 0, 1 if EXPRESSION is null -or 0, 2 if EXPRESSION is syntactically invalid, and 3 if an error occurred. +Exit status is `0` if `EXPRESSION` is neither null nor `0`, `1` if `EXPRESSION` is null +or `0`, `2` if `EXPRESSION` is syntactically invalid, and `3` if an error occurred.
