Check varbinary data

I have to check the values of varbinary data in the text file. For example, in the text file, if the start range is 1100, while the end range is 10FF, it will continue to do the next process, else it will prompt the range is not meet the end range yet.

This is my current code:

var data = File
.ReadAllLines(Path)
.Select(x => x.Split('='))
.Where(x => x.Length > 1)
.ToDictionary(x => x[0].Trim(), x => x[1]);
Console.WriteLine("Start: {0}", data["Start"]);
Console.WriteLine("End: {0}", data["End"]);
if (data["Start"] == data["End"]+1)
{
//it will proceed to next process
}
else
{
//prompt not meet end range
}

This is the text file

The problem is, the if (data["Start"] == data["End"]+1) does not functioning. any other method that I can do?

Hello

If value data["End"] is type of string , there is need to convert it to number, add one and convert it to string again for comparison.

if ( data["Start"].ToString() == (double.Parse(data["End"].ToString()) + 1).ToString() )

All the best,
