What's the difference between IComparable & IEquatable interfaces?

Question

both the interfaces seem to compare objects for equality, so what\'s the major differences between them?

Answer 1

As stated on the MSDN Page for IEquatable:

The IComparable interface defines the CompareTo method, which determines the sort order of instances of the implementing type. The IEquatable interface defines the Equals method, which determines the equality of instances of the implementing type.

Equals vs. CompareTo
