HashSet<T>.IsSubsetOf Method
[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Determines whether a HashSet<T> object is a subset of the specified collection.
Assembly: System.Core (in System.Core.dll)
Parameters
- other
- Type: System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<T>
The collection to compare to the current HashSet<T> object.
Return Value
Type: System.Booleantrue if the HashSet<T> object is a subset of other; otherwise, false.
Implements
ISet<T>.IsSubsetOf(IEnumerable<T>)| Exception | Condition |

| ArgumentNullException | other is null. |
An empty set is a subset of any other collection, including an empty set; therefore, this method returns true if the collection represented by the current HashSet<T> object is empty, even if the other parameter is an empty set.
This method always returns false if Count is greater than the number of elements in other.
If the collection represented by other is a HashSet<T> collection with the same equality comparer as the current HashSet<T> object, this method is an O(n) operation. Otherwise, this method is an O(n + m) operation, where n is Count and m is the number of elements in other.
