Decimal.LessThan Operator (Decimal, Decimal)
.NET Framework (current version)
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- d1
-
Type:
System.Decimal
The first value to compare.
- d2
-
Type:
System.Decimal
The second value to compare.
The LessThan method defines the operation of the less than operator for Decimal values. It enables code such as the following:
using System; public class Example { public static void Main() { Decimal number1 = 16354.0699m; Decimal number2 = 16354.0695m; Console.WriteLine("{0} < {1}: {2}", number1, number2, number1 < number2); number1 = Decimal.Round(number1, 2); number2 = Decimal.Round(number2, 2); Console.WriteLine("{0} < {1}: {2}", number1, number2, number1 < number2); } } // The example displays the following output: // 16354.0699 < 16354.0695: False // 16354.07 < 16354.07: False
Languages that do not support custom operators can call the Compare method instead. They may also be able to call the LessThan method directly, as the following example shows.
Module Example Public Sub Main() Dim number1 As Decimal = 16354.0699d Dim number2 As Decimal = 16354.0695d Console.WriteLine("{0} < {1}: {2}", number1, number2, Decimal.op_LessThan(number1, number2)) number1 = Decimal.Round(number1, 2) number2 = Decimal.Round(number2, 2) Console.WriteLine("{0} < {1}: {2}", number1, number2, Decimal.op_LessThan(number1, number2)) End Sub End Module ' The example displays the following output: ' 16354.0699 < 16354.0695: False ' 16354.07 < 16354.07: False
