This method is used to compare this instance to a specified 8-bit unsigned integer and returns an indication of their relative values.
Syntax:
public int CompareTo (byte value);
Here, the value is an 8-bit unsigned integer to compare.
Return Value: This method returns a signed integer that indicates the relative order of this instance and value.
Below programs illustrate the use of Byte.CompareTo(Byte) Method:
Example 1:
// C# program to demonstrate
// Byte.CompareTo(byte)
// Method
using System;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// Declaring val1 and val2
byte val1, val2;
// initializing the val1,
// val2 and val3
val1 = 12;
val2 = 13;
// getting compared constant
// using CompareTo method
int i = val2.CompareTo(val1);
// checking the condition
if (i > 0)
Console.Write("val2 is greater than val1");
else if (i < 0)
Console.Write("val2 is less than val1");
else
Console.Write("val1 is equal to val1");
}
}
val2 is greater than val1
Example 2:
CSHARP
// C# program to demonstrate
// Byte.CompareTo(byte)
// Method
using System;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// checking the condition
// calling check() method
check((byte)10, (byte)20);
check((byte)30, (byte)20);
check((byte)10, (byte)10);
check((byte)5, (byte)7);
check((byte)40, (byte)50);
check((byte)1, (byte)2);
}
// Defining the check method
public static void check(byte v1, byte v2)
{
// getting compared constant
// using CompareTo() method
int i = v1.CompareTo(v2);
// checking the condition
if (i > 0)
Console.WriteLine(v1 + " is greater than " + v2);
else if (i < 0)
Console.WriteLine(v1 + " is less than " + v2);
else
Console.WriteLine(v1 + " is equal to " + v2);
}
}
10 is less than 20 30 is greater than 20 10 is equal to 10 5 is less than 7 40 is less than 50 1 is less than 2
