# >=(_:_:)

Returns a Boolean value indicating whether the first tuple is ordered
after or the same as the second in a lexicographical ordering.

```
func >= <A, B, C, D, E, F>(lhs: (A, B, C, D, E, F), rhs: (A, B, C, D, E, F)) -> Bool where A : Comparable, B : Comparable, C : Comparable, D : Comparable, E : Comparable, F : Comparable
```

## Parameters

`lhs`

A tuple of `Comparable` elements.

`rhs`

Another tuple of elements of the same type as `lhs`.

## Discussion

Given two tuples `(a1, a2, ..., aN)` and `(b1, b2, ..., bN)`, the first
tuple is after or the same as the second tuple if and only if
`a1 > b1` or (`a1 == b1` and
`(a2, ..., aN) >= (b2, ..., bN)`).
