static VALUE
BigDecimal_gt(VALUE self, VALUE r)
{
    return BigDecimalCmp(self, r, '>');
}

Returns true if self is greater than other, false otherwise:

Example

b = BigDecimal('1.5')
b > 1              # => true
b > 1.0            # => true
b > Rational(1, 1) # => true
b > 2              # => false

Raises an exception if the comparison cannot be made.
