This method is used to return the hash code for this instance.
Syntax: public override int GetHashCode ();
Return Value: This method returns a 32-bit signed integer hash code.
Below programs illustrate the use of DateTime.GetHashCode() Method:
Example 1:
// C# program to demonstrate the // DateTime.GetHashCode() // Method using System;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// creating object of DateTime
DateTime date = new DateTime(2010, 1,
1, 4, 0, 15);
// getting hashcode from DateTime
// using GetHashCode() method;
int value = date.GetHashCode();
// Display the hashcode
Console.WriteLine( "hashcode is {0}" , value);
}
} |
Output:
hashcode is 103491886
Example 2:
// C# program to demonstrate the // DateTime.GetHashCode() // Method using System;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
// calling check() method
check( new DateTime(2010, 1,
3, 4, 0, 15));
check( new DateTime(2010, 1,
5, 4, 0, 15));
}
public static void check(DateTime date)
{
// getting HashCode from DateTime
// using GetHashCode() method;
int value = date.GetHashCode();
// Display the ShortTime
Console.WriteLine( "HashCode of {0} is {1}" ,
date, value);
}
} |
Output:
HashCode of 01/03/2010 04:00:15 is 1802939328 HashCode of 01/05/2010 04:00:15 is -1337841070
