Those codes are Compare Two Dates in C# Console App. For comparing two dates we use DateTime class and if condution.
Example 1: Comparing two dates in C# Console

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 |
using System; //www.csharp-console-examples.com namespace CompareTwoDates { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { DateTime date1 = DateTime.Parse("02/06/2019"); DateTime date2 = DateTime.Now; //Moment Console.WriteLine("Your Date :" + date1.ToShortDateString()); Console.WriteLine("Now :" + date2.ToShortDateString()); Console.WriteLine("**************************"); if (date1.Date > date2.Date) { //It's a later date Console.Write("It's a later date"); } else if(date1.Date < date2.Date) { //It's an earlier or equal date Console.Write("It's an earlier date "); } else { Console.Write("It's an equal date"); } Console.ReadLine(); } } } |
Compares two instances of DateTime and returns an integer that indicates whether the first instance is earlier than, the same as, or later than the second instance.
