Returns a value that indicates whether two Decimal objects have different values.
public:
static bool operator !=(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2);
public:
static bool operator !=(System::Decimal d1, System::Decimal d2) = System::Numerics::IEqualityOperators<System::Decimal, System::Decimal, bool>::op_Inequality;
public static bool operator != (decimal d1, decimal d2);
static member op_Inequality : decimal * decimal -> bool
Public Shared Operator != (d1 As Decimal, d2 As Decimal) As Boolean
Parameters
- d1
- Decimal
The first value to compare.
- d2
- Decimal
The second value to compare.
Returns
true
if d1
and d2
are not equal; otherwise, false
.

Remarks
The Inequality method defines the operation of the inequality operator for Decimal values. It enables code such as the following:
using System;
public class Example
{
public static void Main()
{
Decimal number1 = 16354.0695m;
Decimal number2 = 16354.0699m;
Console.WriteLine("{0} <> {1}: {2}", number1,
number2, number1 != number2);
number1 = Decimal.Round(number1, 2);
number2 = Decimal.Round(number2, 2);
Console.WriteLine("{0} <> {1}: {2}", number1,
number2, number1 != number2);
}
}
// The example displays the following output:
// 16354.0695 <> 16354.0699: True
// 16354.07 <> 16354.07: False
open System
let number1 = 16354.0695m
let number2 = 16354.0699m
printfn $"{number1} <> {number2}: {number1 <> number2}"
let rounded1 = Decimal.Round(number1, 2)
let rounded2 = Decimal.Round(number2, 2)
printfn $"{rounded1} <> {rounded2}: {rounded1 <> rounded2}"
// The example displays the following output:
// 16354.0695 <> 16354.0699: True
// 16354.07 <> 16354.07: False
Module Example
Public Sub Main()
Dim number1 As Decimal = 16354.0695d
Dim number2 As Decimal = 16354.0699d
Console.WriteLine("{0} <> {1}: {2}", number1,
number2, number1 <> number2)
number1 = Decimal.Round(number1, 2)
number2 = Decimal.Round(number2, 2)
Console.WriteLine("{0} <> {1}: {2}", number1,
number2, number1 <> number2)
End Sub
End Module
' The example displays the following output:
' 16354.0695 <> 16354.0699: True
' 16354.07 <> 16354.07: False
If the language you're using doesn't support custom operators, you can test for inequality by using one of the following techniques:
Calling the Compare method, which indicates the relationship between two Decimal values.
Calling the Equals method and reversing its value.
The equivalent method for this operator is Decimal.Compare(Decimal, Decimal)
