In Python, when comparing lists using the less than (<) operator, the lexicographical (dictionary) order is considered. The comparison is performed element-wise until a difference is found. In your example:
a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
b = [1, 2, 5]
print(a < b)
The comparison starts with the first elements: 1 in a and 1 in b. Since they are equal, the comparison moves to the next elements: 2 in a and 2 in b. Again, they are equal. Finally, the comparison reaches the third elements: 3 in a and 5 in b. At this point, 3 is less than 5, so the result of the comparison is True.
Therefore, the output of the code will be: True
