MoreEnumerable.StartsWith(T) Method (IEnumerable(T), IEnumerable(T))

MoreEnumerableStartsWithT Method (IEnumerableT, IEnumerableT)

Determines whether the beginning of the first sequence is equivalent to the second sequence, using the default equality comparer.

Namespace: MoreLinq
Assembly: MoreLinq (in MoreLinq.dll) Version: 2.2.0

Syntax

public static bool StartsWith<T>(
	this IEnumerable<T> first,
	IEnumerable<T> second
)

<ExtensionAttribute>
Public Shared Function StartsWith(Of T) ( 
	first As IEnumerable(Of T),
	second As IEnumerable(Of T)
) As Boolean

public:
[ExtensionAttribute]
generic<typename T>
static bool StartsWith(
	IEnumerable<T>^ first, 
	IEnumerable<T>^ second
)

[<ExtensionAttribute>]
static member StartsWith : 
        first : IEnumerable<'T> * 
        second : IEnumerable<'T> -> bool

first: Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableT
The sequence to check.
second: Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableT
The sequence to compare to.

Type: Boolean
true if first begins with elements equivalent to second.

In Visual Basic and C#, you can call this method as an instance method on any object of type IEnumerableT. When you use instance method syntax to call this method, omit the first parameter. For more information, see Extension Methods (Visual Basic) or Extension Methods (C# Programming Guide).

Remarks

This is the IEnumerableT equivalent of StartsWith(String) and it calls Equals(T, T) using Default on pairs of elements at the same index.
