C-Sharp (C#) Group: Comparable Help

Hey there,

If I have a class Point that holds an x and y coordinate.

How do I implement a comparable class so that for example:

Point a,b;
if (a < b)
{
....
}

Here is I have so far:

public class Point
{
    private double x;
    private double y;
    public double X
    {
        get
        {
            return this.x;
        }
        set
        {
            this.x = value;
        }
    }
    public double Y
    {
        get
        {
            return this.y;
        }
        set
        {
            this.y = value;
        }
    }

Thanks!

What do you mean by a < b? On any given plane what point
is greatest?  If so
where are you starting from? Top Left, Top Right, Bottom
Left, Bottom Right,
or an abstract point?  If not abstract pick your starting
point.  Then
incrementally assign x,y coordinates a unique number value;
store this value
and the x y cords for each point in a hash table or an array
list that is
exposed or is a member of your class.  Wright a static
method in your point
class, passing the x and y of each a and b (or any other two
points, lookup
the number values in your hash table for each point, then
pass back the
result--either greater or smaller.

Hope this helps,


Jeremy Schreckhise, M.B.A.
