      3 # Function smallerEq
      4 
      5 Test whether value x is smaller or equal to y.
      6 
      7 The function returns true when x is smaller than y or the relative
      8 difference between x and y is smaller than the configured epsilon. The
      9 function cannot be used to compare values smaller than approximately 2.22e-16.
     10 
     11 For matrices, the function is evaluated element wise.
     12 Strings are compared by their numerical value.
