Source array.
other  T
Other array to compare to source array.

Type Parameters

T
Type of array.

Return Value

Int32

A signed integer that indicates the relative comparison of source array and other array.

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type T. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

Note that if both arrays are null the arrays will be considered equal. If one array is null and the other array is not null, the non-null array will be considered larger. If the array lengths are not equal, the array with the larger length will be considered larger. If the array lengths are equal, the arrays will be compared based on content.
