help?> isless
search: isless disable_sigint islowercase

  isless(x, y)

  Values that are normally unordered, such as NaN, are ordered after
  regular values. missing values are ordered last.


help?> Base.isgreater
  isgreater(x, y)

  Defined with isless, this function is usually isless(y, x), but NaN
  and missing are ordered as smaller than any ordinary value with
  missing smaller than NaN.

isless says "are ordered after regular values". But then Base.isgreater says "are ordered as smaller than any ordinary value."

I believe the "regular" and "ordinary" are talking about same things, so its best if its stated as "regular" on both end.
