BigInteger.GreaterThanOrEqual Operator (BigInteger, UInt64)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Returns a value that indicates whether a BigInteger value is greater than or equal to a 64-bit unsigned integer value.

This API is not CLS-compliant.

Namespace: System.Numerics
Assembly: System.Numerics (in System.Numerics.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Operator >= ( _
    left As BigInteger, _
    right As ULong _
) As Boolean

public static bool operator >=(
    BigInteger left,
    ulong right
)

Parameters

left
Type: System.Numerics.BigInteger
The first value to compare.

right
Type: System.UInt64
The second value to compare.

Return Value

Type: System.Boolean
true if left is greater than right; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The GreaterThanOrEqual method defines the operation of the greater than or equal to operator for BigInteger values. It enables code such as the following:

Dim bigNumber As BigInteger = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 2)
Dim number As ULong = UInt64.MaxValue
If bigNumber >= number Then
   ' Do something
End If

BigInteger bigNumber = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 2);
ulong number = UInt64.MaxValue;
if (bigNumber >= number)
{
   // Do something
}

Languages that do not support custom operators can call the BigInteger.CompareTo(UInt64) method instead. Some languages can also call the GreaterThanOrEqual(BigInteger, UInt64) method directly, as the following example shows.

Dim bigNumber As BigInteger = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 2)
Dim number As ULong = UInt64.MaxValue
If BigInteger.op_GreaterThanOrEqual(bigNumber, number) Then
   ' Do something
End If
