C# Int16 Struct

Csharp Server Side Programming Programming

The Int16 Struct represents a 16-bit signed integer with values ranging from negative 32768 through positive 32767.

Following are the fields of Int16 −

Sr.No	Field & Description
1	MaxValue − Represents the largest possible value of an Int16. This field is constant.
2	MinValue − Represents the smallest possible value of an Int16. This field is constant.

Following are some of the methods −

Sr.No	Method & Description
1	CompareTo(Int16) − Compares this instance to a specified 16-bit signed integer and returns an integer that indicates whether the value of this instance is less than, equal to, or greater than the value of the specified 16-bit signed integer.
2	CompareTo(Object) − Compares this instance to a specified object and returns an integer that indicates whether the value of this instance is less than, equal to, or greater than the value of the object.
3	Equals(Int16) − Returns a value indicating whether this instance is equal to a specified Int16 value.
4	Equals(Object) − Returns a value indicating whether this instance is equal to a specified object.
5	GetHashCode() − Returns the hash code for this instance.
6	GetTypeCode() − Returns the TypeCode for value type Int16.
7	Parse(String) − Converts the string representation of a number to its 16-bit signed integer equivalent.

Let us now see some examples of the Int16 Struct −

The Int16.GetHashCode() method in C# is used to return the hash code for the current instance.

Syntax

public override int GetHashCode ();

Example

Let us now see an example to implement the Int16.GetHashCode() method −

Live Demo

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      short val1 = 20;
      short val2 = 25;
      Console.WriteLine("Value1 = "+val1);
      Console.WriteLine("Value2 = "+val2);
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value1 = "+val1.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value2 = "+val2.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("Are they equal? = "+(val1.Equals(val2)));
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

Value1 = 20
Value2 = 25
HashCode for value1 = 1310740
HashCode for value2 = 1638425
Are they equal? = False

Example

Let us now see another example to implement the Int16.GetHashCode() method −

Live Demo

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      short val1 = 0;
      short val2 = Int16.MaxValue;
      Console.WriteLine("Value1 = "+val1);
      Console.WriteLine("Value2 = "+val2);
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value1 = "+val1.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value2 = "+val2.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("Are they equal? = "+(val1.Equals(val2)));
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

Value1 = 0
Value2 = 32767
HashCode for value1 = 0
HashCode for value2 = 2147450879
Are they equal? = False

The Int16.GetTypeCode() method in C# is used to return the TypeCode for value type Int16.

Syntax

public TypeCode GetTypeCode ();

Example

Let us now see an example to implement the Int16.GetTypeCode() method −

Live Demo

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      short val1 = 0;
      short val2 = Int16.MaxValue;
      Console.WriteLine("Value1 = "+val1);
      Console.WriteLine("Value2 = "+val2);
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value1 = "+val1.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value2 = "+val2.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("Are they equal? = "+(val1.Equals(val2)));
      TypeCode type1 = val1.GetTypeCode();
      TypeCode type2 = val2.GetTypeCode();
      Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for val1 = "+type1);
      Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for val2 = "+type2);
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

Value1 = 0
Value2 = 32767
HashCode for value1 = 0
HashCode for value2 = 2147450879
Are they equal? = False
TypeCode for val1 = Int16
TypeCode for val2 = Int16

Example

Let us now see another example to implement the Int16.GetTypeCode() method −

Live Demo

using System;
public class Demo {
   public static void Main() {
      short val1 = 23;
      short val2 = 0;
      Console.WriteLine("Value1 = "+val1);
      Console.WriteLine("Value2 = "+val2);
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value1 = "+val1.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("HashCode for value2 = "+val2.GetHashCode());
      Console.WriteLine("Are they equal? = "+(val1.Equals(val2)));
      TypeCode type1 = val1.GetTypeCode();
      TypeCode type2 = val2.GetTypeCode();
      Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for val1 = "+type1);
      Console.WriteLine("TypeCode for val2 = "+type2);
   }
}

Output

This will produce the following output −

Value1 = 23
Value2 = 0
HashCode for value1 = 1507351
HashCode for value2 = 0
Are they equal? = False
TypeCode for val1 = Int16
TypeCode for val2 = Int16
