When the arguments to Less than or Equal to are [[Boolean]], it is the [[wikipedia:Material conditional|material implication]] [[Boolean function]], also known as the [[wikipedia:IMPLY gate|IMPLY gate]]:
When used as a [[Boolean function]] (that is, with argument consisting entirely of 0s and 1s), it represents [[wikipedia:Material conditional|material implication]], also known as the [[wikipedia:IMPLY gate|IMPLY gate]]:

In the context of logic, it can be read as ''implies''.

Less than or Equal to [[Scan]] is an occasionally used pattern related to [[Less than]] Scan. While <source lang=apl inline><\</source> changes all 1s after the first to 0, <source lang=apl inline>≤\</source> changes all 0s after the first to 1. Thus <source lang=apl inline>≤\A</source> {{←→}} <source lang=apl inline>~<\~A</source>.
<source lang=apl>
      ≤\ 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0
1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1
</source>
<source lang=apl inline>≤\</source> appears in the [[FinnAPL idiom library]] as entry 350, "Not first zero".
