Summary: – Illustrates using with in C-Sharp ASP.NET.



Purpose:
Returns an integer indicating the sign of the
input parameter. The result is -1 if the input
parameter is less than one; 0 if the input is
zero; and 1 if the input is > 0

Syntax:
1. Sign(decimal)
2. Sign(double)
3. Sign(int16)
4. Sign(int32)
5. Sign(int64)
6. Sign(SByte)
7. Sign(Single)

Parameters Description
decimal Any valid System.Decimal data type number
2. double – any valid System.Double data type.
3. int16 – any valid System.Int16 data type.
4. int32 – any valid System.Int32 data type.
5. int64 – any valid System.Int64 data type.
6. SByte – any valid 8-bit SByte
7. Single – any valid single floating-point 32-bit number.

Result Data Type Description
Int32 Returns an integer indicating the sign of the
input parameter. The result is -1 if the input
parameter is less than one; 0 if the input is
zero; and 1 if the input is > 0

Quick Example
Sign(3.5) // Returns 1
