Algorithms.LowerBound(TElement, TValue) Method (IList(TElement), TValue, Int32, Int32, Func(TElement, TValue, Int32))

Returns the minimum index i in the range [startIndex, endIndex - 1] such that list[i] >= value or endIndex if no such i exists

Namespace: CodeJam
Assembly: CodeJam (in CodeJam.dll) Version: 2.1.0.0

Syntax

C#

public static int LowerBound<TElement, TValue>(
	this IList<TElement> list,
	TValue value,
	int startIndex,
	int endIndex,
	Func<TElement, TValue, int> comparer
)

VB

<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function LowerBound(Of TElement, TValue) ( 
	list As IList(Of TElement),
	value As TValue,
	startIndex As Integer,
	endIndex As Integer,
	comparer As Func(Of TElement, TValue, Integer)
) As Integer

F#

[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member LowerBound : 
        list : IList<'TElement> * 
        value : 'TValue * 
        startIndex : int * 
        endIndex : int * 
        comparer : Func<'TElement, 'TValue, int> -> int 

Parameters

 

list

Type: System.Collections.Generic.IList(TElement)
The sorted list

value

Type: TValue
The value to compare

startIndex

Type: System.Int32
The minimum index

endIndex

Type: System.Int32
The upper bound for the index (not included)

comparer

Type: System.Func(TElement, TValue, Int32)
The function with the Comparer.Compare semantics

Type Parameters

 

TElement

The list element type

TValue

The type of the value

Return Value

Type: Int32
The lower bound for the value

Usage Note

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IList(TElement). 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).
