[CLSCompliant(false)]
public static int InsertOrdered<T>(this IList<T> list, T item, delegate*<T?, T?, int> comparer)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IList<T>	list	The list to insert into.

delegate*<T, T, int>	comparer	The comparer function.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The actual index of the inserted item.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The type of the items in the list.

Remarks

Time complexity of this operation is O(log N), where N is a size of the list.

Comparison<T>	comparer	The comparer function.

Returns

Type	Description
int	The actual index of the inserted item.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The type of the items in the list.

Remarks

Time complexity of this operation is O(log N), where N is a size of the list.

InsertOrdered<T, TComparer>(IList<T>, T, TComparer)

Inserts the item into sorted list.

Declaration

public static int InsertOrdered<T, TComparer>(this IList<T> list, T item, TComparer comparer) where TComparer : notnull, IComparer<T>

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

Returns

Type	Description
int	The actual index of the inserted item.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The type of the items in the list.
TComparer	The type of the comparer providing comparison logic.

Remarks

Time complexity of this operation is O(log N), where N is a size of the list.

InsertOrdered<T, TComparer>(List<T>, T, TComparer)

Inserts the item into sorted list.

Declaration

public static int InsertOrdered<T, TComparer>(this List<T> list, T item, TComparer comparer) where TComparer : notnull, IComparer<T>

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

Returns

Type	Description
int	The actual index of the inserted item.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The type of the items in the list.
TComparer	The type of the comparer providing comparison logic.

Remarks

Time complexity of this operation is O(log N), where N is a size of the list. This version method is specially optimized for List<T> data type while InsertOrdered<T, TComparer>(IList<T>, T, TComparer) is for generic list of unknown type.
