infix:
Combined from primary sources listed below.

In DateTime§

See primary documentation in context for sub infix:<cmp>. 

multi infix:<cmp>(DateTime:D \a, DateTime:D \b --> Order:D)

Compares the equivalent instant, returns the Order.

In Range§

See primary documentation in context for sub infix:<cmp>. 

multi infix:<cmp>(Range:D \a, Range:D \b --> Order:D)
multi infix:<cmp>(Num(Real) \a, Range:D \b --> Order:D)
multi infix:<cmp>(Range:D \a, Num(Real) \b --> Order:D)
multi infix:<cmp>(Positional \a, Range:D \b --> Order:D)
multi infix:<cmp>(Range:D \a, Positional \b --> Order:D)

Compares two Range objects. A Real operand will be considered as both the starting point and the ending point of a Range to be compared with the other operand. A Positional operand will be compared with the list returned by the .list method applied to the other operand. See List infix:<cmp>

say (1..2) cmp (1..2); # OUTPUT: «Same␤»
say (1..2) cmp (1..3); # OUTPUT: «Less␤»
say (1..4) cmp (1..3); # OUTPUT: «More␤»
say (1..2) cmp 3;      # OUTPUT: «Less␤»
say (1..2) cmp [1,2];  # OUTPUT: «Same␤»
