JSP JSTL <c:if="${1 == 2}"> returning true

I've been having issues where JSTL c:if does not seem to be working correctly.. so I tested it with the following statement...

<c:if="${1 == 2}">
   1 is equal to 2
</c:if>

And it is outputting "1 is equal to 2"...

Is there something I'm missing here?

EDIT: found the issue and it was me being silly.. the problem was I'd forgot to include the jstl core tag library in the page

The EL expression with the condition has to be a value of the test attribute.

<c:if test="${1 == 2}">
   1 is equal to 2
</c:if>
