A SortedSet<T> maintains a sorted order as elements are inserted and deleted without affecting performance. Duplicate elements are not allowed.

The following example demonstrates a SortedSet<T> class that is created with the constructor that takes an IComparer<T> as a parameter. This comparer (ByFileExtension) is used to sort a list of file names by their extensions.

This example demonstrates how to create a sorted set of media file names, remove unwanted elements, view a range of elements, and compare the set with another sorted set.

What is the complexity of Min and Max?
What is the complexity of Min and Max, please? O(1)? O(log(n))? Something else?
Comparer property description typo
Naturally, it's IComparer, not IEqualityComparer.
Implementation
SortedSet is implemented as Red-Black tree behind the scenes. Its search, insert, delete operations all have time complexity(both average and worst) of O(Log n) so it is quite balanced.
