compare two columns containing null or 0 value.

How should we compare two columns containing null or 0 value. 

 

Unable to properly do conditional formating after that

logic used : if column 2< column1,0,1)

Here we are comparing if 0.97< 0 ( if column2 < Column 1),column2 should be green but we are still getting red.

It should be green as 0.97 greater than 0

new = IF([column1]<[column0],0,1). This is what i have issued. Then 0 for red in conditional formating and 1 for gree. But if column 1 is null then this logic not working.
