Compares this instance to a signed 64-bit integer and returns an integer that indicates whether the value of this instance is less than, equal to, or greater than the value of the signed 64-bit integer.

Namespace:   System.Numerics
Assembly:  System.Numerics (in System.Numerics.dll)

public:
int CompareTo(
	long long other
)

Parameters

other
Type: System::Int64

The signed 64-bit integer to compare.

Return value

Description

Less than zero

The current instance is less than other.

Zero

The current instance equals other.

Greater than zero

The current instance is greater than other.

If other is a Byte, Int16, Int32, SByte, UInt16, or UInt32 value, it is implicitly converted to an Int64 value when the CompareTo(Int64) method is called.

The following example illustrates the result of calling the CompareTo(Int64) method with integral values.
