Enum std::cmp::Ordering [−] [src]

pub enum Ordering {
    Less,
    Equal,
    Greater,
}
1.0.0

An Ordering is the result of a comparison between two values.

Examples

fn main() { use std::cmp::Ordering; let result = 1.cmp(&2); assert_eq!(Ordering::Less, result); let result = 1.cmp(&1); assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal, result); let result = 2.cmp(&1); assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater, result); }
use std::cmp::Ordering;

let result = 1.cmp(&2);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less, result);

let result = 1.cmp(&1);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal, result);

let result = 2.cmp(&1);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater, result);

Variants

Less

An ordering where a compared value is less [than another].

Equal

An ordering where a compared value is equal [to another].

Greater

An ordering where a compared value is greater [than another].

Methods

impl Ordering

fn reverse(self) -> Ordering

Reverse the Ordering.

  • Less becomes Greater.
  • Greater becomes Less.
  • Equal becomes Equal.

Examples

Basic behavior:

fn main() { use std::cmp::Ordering; assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.reverse(), Ordering::Greater); assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.reverse(), Ordering::Equal); assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.reverse(), Ordering::Less); }
use std::cmp::Ordering;

assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.reverse(), Ordering::Greater);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.reverse(), Ordering::Equal);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.reverse(), Ordering::Less);

This method can be used to reverse a comparison:

fn main() { let mut data: &mut [_] = &mut [2, 10, 5, 8]; // sort the array from largest to smallest. data.sort_by(|a, b| a.cmp(b).reverse()); let b: &mut [_] = &mut [10, 8, 5, 2]; assert!(data == b); }
let mut data: &mut [_] = &mut [2, 10, 5, 8];

// sort the array from largest to smallest.
data.sort_by(|a, b| a.cmp(b).reverse());

let b: &mut [_] = &mut [10, 8, 5, 2];
assert!(data == b);
