  • "greater than zero" is only half of the description; the other half is "smaller than zero". But in this case all that is tested for is not zero, i.e., it does not matter whether the second string is "greater" or "smaller", the code merely tests for equal strings. This is indicated by a zero in EAX, which is tested here with the OR. Commented Jun 22, 2014 at 11:38
