The following code example demonstrates generic and non-generic versions of the CompareTo
method for several value and reference types.
// This example demonstrates the two versions of the
// CompareTo method for several base types.
// The general version takes a parameter of type Object, while the specific
// version takes a type-specific parameter, such as Boolean, Int32, or Double.

Remarks
This method implements the System.IComparable<T> interface and performs slightly better than the Byte.CompareTo(Object) method because it does not have to convert the value
parameter to an object.
Depending on your programming language, it might be possible to code a CompareTo method where the parameter type has fewer bits (is narrower) than the instance type. This is possible because some programming languages perform an implicit widening conversion that represents the parameter as a type with as many bits as the instance.
For example, suppose the instance type is Int32 and the parameter type is Byte. The Microsoft C# compiler generates instructions to represent the value of the parameter as an Int32, then generates a Int32.CompareTo method that compares the values of the Int32 instance and the Int32 parameter representation.
Consult your programming language's documentation to determine whether its compiler performs implicit widening conversions on numeric types.

else
printfn $"{byte1} is equal to the MemberByte value {byte2}"
Public Sub Compare(ByVal myByte As [Byte])
Dim myCompareResult As Integer
myCompareResult = MemberByte.CompareTo(myByte)
If myCompareResult > 0 Then
Console.WriteLine("{0} is less than the MemberByte value {1}", myByte.ToString(), MemberByte.ToString())
Else
If myCompareResult < 0 Then
Console.WriteLine("{0} is greater than the MemberByte value {1}", myByte.ToString(), MemberByte.ToString())
Else
Console.WriteLine("{0} is equal to the MemberByte value {1}", myByte.ToString(), MemberByte.ToString())
End If
End If
End Sub
Remarks
value
must be null
or an instance of Byte; otherwise, an exception is thrown.
Any instance of Byte, regardless of its value, is considered greater than null
.
This method is implemented to support the IComparable interface.
