BigInteger.MinMagnitude(BigInteger, BigInteger) Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Numerics

Assembly:

System.Runtime.Numerics.dll

Source:

BigInteger.cs

Compares two values to compute which is lesser.

public:
 static System::Numerics::BigInteger MinMagnitude(System::Numerics::BigInteger x, System::Numerics::BigInteger y) = System::Numerics::INumberBase<System::Numerics::BigInteger>::MinMagnitude;

public static System.Numerics.BigInteger MinMagnitude (System.Numerics.BigInteger x, System.Numerics.BigInteger y);

static member MinMagnitude : System.Numerics.BigInteger * System.Numerics.BigInteger -> System.Numerics.BigInteger

Public Shared Function MinMagnitude (x As BigInteger, y As BigInteger) As BigInteger

Parameters

x

BigInteger

The value to compare with y.

y

BigInteger

The value to compare with x.

Returns

BigInteger

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

Implements

MinMagnitude(TSelf, TSelf)

Remarks

For IFloatingPointIeee754<TSelf> this method matches the IEEE 754:2019 minimumMagnitude function. This requires NaN inputs to be propagated back to the caller and for -0.0 to be treated as less than +0.0.
