public static bool IsNegative<T>(T value)
   where T : struct, IComparable<T>
{
    return value.CompareTo(default(T)) < 0;
}

当然没有人给出正确答案，

num != 0   // num is positive *or* negative!

过分了!

public static class AwesomeExtensions
{
    public static bool IsPositive(this int number)
    {
        return number > 0;
    }

    public static bool IsNegative(this int number)
    {
        return number < 0;
    }

    public static bool IsZero(this int number)
    {
        return number == 0;
    }

    public static bool IsAwesome(this int number)
    {
        return IsNegative(number) && IsPositive(number) && IsZero(number);
    }
}

int j = num * -1;

if (j - num  == j)
{
     // Num is equal to zero
}
else if (j < i)
{
      // Num is positive
}
else if (j > i) 
{
     // Num is negative
}

bool isNegative(int n) {
  int i;
  for (i = 0; i <= Int32.MaxValue; i++) {
    if (n == i) 
      return false;
  }
  return true;
}

这是行业标准:

int is_negative(float num)
{
  char *p = (char*) malloc(20);
  sprintf(p, "%f", num);
  return p[0] == '-';
}
