IComparable<T> "operators"

[oliverbooth]

Type

System.IComparable<T>

Extension method signature

T GreaterThan<T>(T);
T GreaterThanOrEqualTo<T>(T);
T LessThan<T>(T);
T LessThanOrEqualTo<T>(T);

Parameters	Parameter	Type	Description
other	T	The value to compare against.

Description Determines if the current value is greater/less than (or equal to) another value.

Benefits The IComparable<T> interface offers CompareTo(T) method, but naturally does not offer operators such as > < >= and <=. These methods would essentially implement that functionality.

Drawbacks None considered (at this current time)

(Optional) Implementation example

{
    return value.CompareTo(other) < 0;
    // or
    return value.CompareTo(other) <= 0;
    // or
    return value.CompareTo(other) > 0;
    // or
    return value.CompareTo(other) >= 0;
}
