[This topic is pre-release documentation and is subject to change in future releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]
Searchs a list for a sub-sequence of items that match a particular pattern. A subsequence
of list matches pattern at index i if list[i] is "equal" to the first item
in pattern, list[i+1] is "equal" to the second item in pattern,
and so forth for all the items in pattern. The passed
BinaryPredicate is used to determine if two items are "equal".

Syntax
| C# |
|---|
public static int SearchForSubsequence<T>( IList<T> list, IEnumerable<T> pattern, BinaryPredicate<T> predicate ) |
| Visual Basic (Declaration) |
|---|
Public Shared Function SearchForSubsequence(Of T) ( _ list As IList(Of T), _ pattern As IEnumerable(Of T), _ predicate As BinaryPredicate(Of T) _ ) As Integer |
| Visual C++ |
|---|
public: generic<typename T> static int SearchForSubsequence ( IList<T>^ list, IEnumerable<T>^ pattern, BinaryPredicate<T>^ predicate ) |
Parameters
- list
- IList<(Of <T>)>
The list to search.
- pattern
- IEnumerable<(Of <T>)>
The sequence of items to search for.
- predicate
- BinaryPredicate<(Of <T>)>
The BinaryPredicate used to compare items for "equality".
Return Value
The first index with list that matches the items in pattern.Type Parameters
- T
- The type of items in the list.
Remarks
Since an arbitrary BinaryPredicate is passed to this function, what is being tested
for in the pattern need not be equality.
