pub enum Ordering {
Less,
Equal,
Greater,
}Expand description
An Ordering is the result of a comparison between two values.
Examples
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.
Implementations
Returns true if the ordering is the Equal variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_eq(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_eq(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_eq(), false);Returns true if the ordering is not the Equal variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_ne(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_ne(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_ne(), true);Returns true if the ordering is the Less variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_lt(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_lt(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_lt(), false);Returns true if the ordering is the Greater variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_gt(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_gt(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_gt(), true);Returns true if the ordering is either the Less or Equal variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_le(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_le(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_le(), false);Returns true if the ordering is either the Greater or Equal variant.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less.is_ge(), false);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal.is_ge(), true);
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater.is_ge(), true);Reverses the Ordering.

Examples
Basic behavior:
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:
let 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);Chains two orderings.
Returns self when it’s not Equal. Otherwise returns other.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
let result = Ordering::Equal.then(Ordering::Less);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Less.then(Ordering::Equal);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Less.then(Ordering::Greater);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Equal.then(Ordering::Equal);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Equal);
let x: (i64, i64, i64) = (1, 2, 7);
let y: (i64, i64, i64) = (1, 5, 3);
let result = x.0.cmp(&y.0).then(x.1.cmp(&y.1)).then(x.2.cmp(&y.2));
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);Chains the ordering with the given function.
Returns self when it’s not Equal. Otherwise calls f and returns
the result.
Examples
use std::cmp::Ordering;
let result = Ordering::Equal.then_with(|| Ordering::Less);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Less.then_with(|| Ordering::Equal);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Less.then_with(|| Ordering::Greater);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Less);
let result = Ordering::Equal.then_with(|| Ordering::Equal);
assert_eq!(result, Ordering::Equal);
let x: (i64, i64, i64) = (1, 2, 7);
let y: (i64, i64, i64) = (1, 5, 3);
let result = x.0.cmp(&y.0).then_with(|| x.1.cmp(&y.1)).then_with(|| x.2.cmp(&y.2));
