Double.MinNumber(Double, Double) Method

Definition

Compares two values to compute which is lesser and returning the other value if an input is NaN.

public:
 static double MinNumber(double x, double y) = System::Numerics::INumber<double>::MinNumber;
public static double MinNumber (double x, double y);
static member MinNumber : double * double -> double
Public Shared Function MinNumber (x As Double, y As Double) As Double

Parameters

x
Double

The value to compare with y.

y
Double

The value to compare with x.

Returns

x if it is less than y; otherwise, y.

Remarks

For IFloatingPoint<TSelf> this method matches the IEEE 754:2019 minimumNumber function. This requires NaN inputs to not be propagated back to the caller and for -0.0 to be treated as less than +0.0.
