Definition

Namespace:

System.Numerics

Overloads

Inequality(Int64, BigInteger)	Returns a value that indicates whether a 64-bit signed integer and a BigInteger value are not equal.
Inequality(BigInteger, Int64)	Returns a value that indicates whether a BigInteger value and a 64-bit signed integer are not equal.
Inequality(BigInteger, BigInteger)	Returns a value that indicates whether two BigInteger objects have different values.
Inequality(BigInteger, UInt64)	Returns a value that indicates whether a BigInteger value and a 64-bit unsigned integer are not equal.

Inequality(Int64, BigInteger)

Source:

BigInteger.cs

Returns a value that indicates whether a 64-bit signed integer and a BigInteger value are not equal.

public:
 static bool operator !=(long left, System::Numerics::BigInteger right);

public static bool operator != (long left, System.Numerics.BigInteger right);

static member op_Inequality : int64 * System.Numerics.BigInteger -> bool

Public Shared Operator != (left As Long, right As BigInteger) As Boolean

Parameters

left

Int64

The first value to compare.

right

BigInteger

The second value to compare.

Returns

Boolean

true if left and right are not equal; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The Inequality method defines the operation of the inequality operator for BigInteger values. It enables code such as the following:

BigInteger bigNumber = BigInteger.Pow(2, 63);
long number = Int64.MaxValue;
if (number != bigNumber)
{
   // Do something...
}

let bigNumber = BigInteger.Pow(2, 63)
let number = Int64.MaxValue

if bigint number <> bigNumber then
    // Do something...

Dim bigNumber As BigInteger = BigInteger.Pow(2, 63)
Dim number As Long = Int64.MaxValue
If number <> bigNumber Then
   ' Do something...
End If

Languages that do not support custom operators can test for inequality by using one of the following techniques:

• Calling the BigInteger.CompareTo(Int64) instance method, which indicates the relationship between a BigInteger and a signed long integer value.

• Calling the BigInteger.Equals(Int64) instance method and reversing its value.

If left is a Byte, Int16, Int32, SByte, UInt16, or UInt32 value, it is implicitly converted to an Int64 value when the operation is performed.

public static bool operator != (System.Numerics.BigInteger left, long right);

static member op_Inequality : System.Numerics.BigInteger * int64 -> bool

Public Shared Operator != (left As BigInteger, right As Long) As Boolean

Parameters

left

BigInteger

The first value to compare.

right

Int64

The second value to compare.

Returns

Boolean

true if left and right are not equal; otherwise, false.

If right is a Byte, Int16, Int32, SByte, UInt16, or UInt32 value, it is implicitly converted to an Int64 value when the operation is performed.

The equivalent method for this operator is BigInteger.CompareTo(Int64).

Remarks

The Inequality method defines the operation of the inequality operator for BigInteger values. It enables code such as the following:

BigInteger number1 = 945834723;
BigInteger number2 = 345145625;
BigInteger number3 = 945834723;
Console.WriteLine(number1 != number2);             // Displays True
Console.WriteLine(number1 != number3);             // Displays False

let number1 = 945834723I
let number2 = 345145625I
let number3 = 945834723I
printfn $"{number1 <> number2}" // Displays True
printfn $"{number1 <> number3}" // Displays False

Dim number1 As BigInteger = 945834723
Dim number2 As BigInteger = 345145625
Dim number3 As BigInteger = 945834723 
Console.WriteLine(number1 <> number2)                  ' Displays True
Console.WriteLine(number1 <> number3)                  ' Displays False

Languages that do not support custom operators can test for inequality by using one of the following techniques:

• Calling the BigInteger.Compare method, which indicates the relationship between two BigInteger objects.

• Calling the BigInteger.Equals(BigInteger) method and reversing its value.

The equivalent method for this operator is BigInteger.Compare(BigInteger, BigInteger).
