PrecisionAlmostEqualNormT(T, T, Int32) Method |
Compares two doubles and determines if they are equal to within the specified number of decimal places or not, using the
number of decimal places as an absolute measure.
Namespace: Altaxo.CalcAssembly: AltaxoCore (in AltaxoCore.dll) Version: 4.8.3179.0 (4.8.3179.0)
Syntax public static bool AlmostEqualNorm<T>(
this T a,
T b,
int decimalPlaces
)
where T : Object, IPrecisionSupport<T>
Parameters
- a T
- The first value.
- b T
- The second value.
- decimalPlaces Int32
- The number of decimal places.
Type Parameters
- T
[Missing <typeparam name="T"/> documentation for "M:Altaxo.Calc.Precision.AlmostEqualNorm``1(``0,``0,System.Int32)"]
Return Value
Boolean[Missing <returns> documentation for "M:Altaxo.Calc.Precision.AlmostEqualNorm``1(``0,``0,System.Int32)"]
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
The values are equal if the difference between the two numbers is smaller than 0.5e-decimalPlaces. We divide by
two so that we have half the range on each side of the numbers, e.g. if decimalPlaces == 2, then 0.01 will equal between
0.005 and 0.015, but not 0.02 and not 0.00
