IStringComparable (System)

The IStringComparable interface defines a common method for comparing two strings.

IStringComparable

This interface is used to provide a way to compare strings in a standardized manner. It's commonly used in the .NET Framework for sorting strings and implementing comparison logic.

The main method defined in this interface is Compare, which takes two string objects as input and returns an integer value indicating the relative order of the strings. The return values are as follows:

Return value of 0: The two strings are considered equal.
Return value of 1: The first string is greater than the second string.
Return value of -1: The first string is less than the second string.

Example

                
                // Assuming you have an IStringComparable implementation, like StringComparison
                StringComparison comparison = new StringComparison();

                string string1 = "apple";
                string string2 = "banana";

                int result = comparison.Compare(string1, string2);

                Console.WriteLine($"Compare('{string1}', '{string2}') returned: {result}"); // Output: Compare('apple', 'banana') returned: -1
