Compares two TimeSpan values and returns an integer that indicates whether the first value is shorter than, equal to, or longer than the second value.

public:
 static int Compare(TimeSpan t1, TimeSpan t2);

public static int Compare (TimeSpan t1, TimeSpan t2);

static member Compare : TimeSpan * TimeSpan -> int

Public Shared Function Compare (t1 As TimeSpan, t2 As TimeSpan) As Integer

Parameters

t1: TimeSpan

The first time interval to compare.

t2: TimeSpan

The second time interval to compare.

Returns

Int32

One of the following values.

Value	Description
-1	`t1` is shorter than `t2`.
0	`t1` is equal to `t2`.
1	`t1` is longer than `t2`.

Examples

The following example uses the Compare method to compare several TimeSpan objects with a TimeSpan object whose value is a 2-hour time interval.

// Define a time interval equal to two hours.
TimeSpan baseInterval = new TimeSpan( 2, 0, 0);

// Define an array of time intervals to compare with
// the base interval.
TimeSpan[] spans = { 
    TimeSpan.FromSeconds(-2.5),
    TimeSpan.FromMinutes(20),
    TimeSpan.FromHours(1), 
    TimeSpan.FromMinutes(90),
    baseInterval,  
    TimeSpan.FromDays(.5), 
    TimeSpan.FromDays(1) 
};

// Compare the time intervals.
foreach (var span in spans) {
   int result = TimeSpan.Compare(baseInterval, span);
   Console.WriteLine("{0} {1} {2} (Compare returns {3})", 
                     baseInterval,
                     result == 1 ? ">" : result == 0 ? "=" : "<",
                     span, result);     
}

// The example displays the following output:
//       02:00:00 > -00:00:02.5000000 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 00:20:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 01:00:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 01:30:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 = 02:00:00 (Compare returns 0)
//       02:00:00 < 12:00:00 (Compare returns -1)
//       02:00:00 < 1.00:00:00 (Compare returns -1)

open System

// Define a time interval equal to two hours.
let baseInterval = TimeSpan(2, 0, 0)

// Define a list of time intervals to compare with
// the base interval.
let spans = 
    [ TimeSpan.FromSeconds -2.5
      TimeSpan.FromMinutes 20
      TimeSpan.FromHours 1 
      TimeSpan.FromMinutes 90
      baseInterval
      TimeSpan.FromDays 0.5 
      TimeSpan.FromDays 1 ]

// Compare the time intervals.
for span in spans do
    let result = TimeSpan.Compare(baseInterval, span)
    printfn $"""{baseInterval} {if result = 1 then ">" elif result = 0 then "=" else "<"} {span} (Compare returns {result})""" 

// The example displays the following output:
//       02:00:00 > -00:00:02.5000000 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 00:20:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 01:00:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 > 01:30:00 (Compare returns 1)
//       02:00:00 = 02:00:00 (Compare returns 0)
//       02:00:00 < 12:00:00 (Compare returns -1)
//       02:00:00 < 1.00:00:00 (Compare returns -1)
