BigInteger.GreaterThan Operator (Int64, BigInteger)

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

Returns a value that indicates whether a 64-bit signed integer is greater than a BigInteger value.

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

Syntax

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

public static bool operator >(
    long left,
    BigInteger right
)

Parameters

Return Value

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

Remarks

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

Dim bigNumber As BigInteger = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 4)
Dim number As Long = Int64.MaxValue
If number > bigNumber Then
   ' Do something
End If

BigInteger bigNumber = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 4);
long number = Int64.MaxValue;
if (number > bigNumber)
{
   // Do something;
}

Languages that do not support custom operators can call the BigInteger.CompareTo(Int64) instance method instead. Some languages can also call the GreaterThan(Int64, BigInteger) method directly, as the following example shows.

Dim bigNumber As BigInteger = BigInteger.Pow(Int32.MaxValue, 4)
Dim number As Long = Int64.MaxValue
If BigInteger.op_GreaterThan(number, bigNumber) Then
   ' Do something
End If

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.
