This method is used to compare two specified Decimal values.
Syntax: public static int Compare (decimal a1, decimal a2); Parameters: a1:This parameter specifies the first value to compare. a2:This parameter specifies the second value to compare. Return Value: It returns a signed number indicating the relative values of a1 & a2.
- If the value is less than zero, it means a1 is less than a2.
- If the value is greater than zero, it means a1 is greater than a2.
- If the value is zero, it means a1 is equal to a2.
Below programs illustrate the use of
Decimal.Compare(Decimal, Decimal) Method Example 1:When a1 is greater than a2.
csharp
// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Compare(Decimal,
// Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// Declaring the decimal variables
Decimal a1 = 4;
Decimal a2 = 3;
// comparing the two Decimal value
// using Compare() method;
Decimal value = Decimal.Compare(a1, a2);
// Display the compare value
Console.WriteLine("The compare value is : {0}",
value);
}
}
Output:
The compare value is : 1Example 2:
When a1 is less than a2.
csharp
// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Compare(Decimal,
// Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// Declaring the decimal variables
Decimal a1 = 1;
Decimal a2 = 9;
// comparing the two Decimal value
// using Compare() method;
Decimal value = Decimal.Compare(a1, a2);
// Display the compare value
Console.WriteLine("The compare value is : {0}",
value);
}
}
Output:
The compare value is : -1Example 3:
When a1 is equals to a2.
csharp
// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.Compare(Decimal,
// Decimal) Method
using System;
using System.Globalization;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// Declaring the decimal variables
Decimal a1 = 5;
Decimal a2 = 5;
// comparing the two Decimal value
// using Compare() method;
Decimal value = Decimal.Compare(a1, a2);
// Display the compare value
Console.WriteLine("The compare value is : {0}",
value);
}
}
Output:
The compare value is : 0
