Examples

The following example instantiates a BigInteger object from a 5-element byte array whose value is {5, 4, 3, 2, 1}. It then displays the BigInteger value, represented as both decimal and hexadecimal numbers, to the console. A comparison of the input array with the text output makes it clear why this overload of the BigInteger class constructor creates a BigInteger object whose value is 4328719365 (or 0x102030405). The first element of the byte array, whose value is 5, defines the value of the lowest-order byte of the BigInteger object, which is 0x05. The second element of the byte array, whose value is 4, defines the value of the second byte of the BigInteger object, which is 0x04, and so on.

byte[] bytes = { 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 };
BigInteger number = new BigInteger(bytes);
Console.WriteLine("The value of number is {0} (or 0x{0:x}).", number);
// The example displays the following output:
//    The value of number is 4328719365 (or 0x102030405).
let bytes = [| 5uy; 4uy; 3uy; 2uy; 1uy |]
let number = new BigInteger(bytes)
printfn $"The value of number is {number} (or 0x{number:x})."
// The example displays the following output:
//    The value of number is 4328719365 (or 0x102030405).
Dim bytes() As Byte = { 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 }
Dim number As New BigInteger(bytes)
Console.WriteLine("The value of number is {0} (or 0x{0:x}).", number) 
' The example displays the following output:
'    The value of number is 4328719365 (or 0x102030405).

The following example instantiates a positive and a negative BigInteger value, passes them to the ToByteArray method, and then restores the original BigInteger values from the resulting byte array. Note that the two values are represented by identical byte arrays. The only difference between them is in the most significant bit of the last element in the byte array. This bit is set (the value of the byte is 0xFF) if the array is created from a negative BigInteger value. The bit is not set (the value of the byte is zero), if the array is created from a positive BigInteger value.

// Instantiate BigInteger values.
BigInteger positiveValue = BigInteger.Parse("4713143110832790377889");
BigInteger negativeValue = BigInteger.Add(-Int64.MaxValue, -60000);

The following example illustrates how to make sure that a positive value is not incorrectly instantiated as a negative value by adding a byte whose value is zero to the end of the array.

ulong originalNumber = UInt64.MaxValue;
byte[] bytes = BitConverter.GetBytes(originalNumber);
if (originalNumber > 0 && (bytes[bytes.Length - 1] & 0x80) > 0)
{
   byte[] temp = new byte[bytes.Length];
   Array.Copy(bytes, temp, bytes.Length);
   bytes = new byte[temp.Length + 1];
   Array.Copy(temp, bytes, temp.Length);
}

Console.WriteLine("Converted the UInt64 value {0:N0} to {1:N0}.",
                  originalNumber, newNumber);
// The example displays the following output:
//    Converted the UInt64 value 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615.
let originalNumber = UInt64.MaxValue
let mutable bytes = BitConverter.GetBytes originalNumber

if originalNumber > 0uL && (bytes[bytes.Length - 1] &&& 0x80uy) > 0uy then
    let temp = Array.zeroCreate bytes.Length

    Array.Copy(bytes, temp, bytes.Length)
    bytes <- Array.zeroCreate (temp.Length + 1)
    Array.Copy(temp, bytes, temp.Length)

let newNumber = bigint bytes
printfn $"Converted the UInt64 value {originalNumber:N0} to {newNumber:N0}."
// The example displays the following output:
//    Converted the UInt64 value 18,446,744,073,709,551,615 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615.
Dim originalNumber As ULong = UInt64.MaxValue
' Convert an unsigned integer to a byte array.
Dim bytes() As Byte = BitConverter.GetBytes(originalNumber)
' Determine whether the MSB of the highest-order byte is set.
If originalNumber > 0 And (bytes(bytes.Length - 1) And &h80) > 0 Then
   ' If the MSB is set, add one zero-value byte to the end of the array.
   ReDim Preserve bytes(bytes.Length)
End If

Dim newNumber As New BigInteger(bytes)
Console.WriteLine("Converted the UInt64 value {0:N0} to {1:N0}.", 
                  originalNumber, newNumber) 
' The example displays the following output:

Remarks

The individual bytes in the value array should be in little-endian order, from lowest-order byte to highest-order byte. For example, the numeric value 1,000,000,000,000 is represented as shown in the following table:

Hexadecimal string E8D4A51000
Byte array (lowest index first) 00 10 A5 D4 E8 00

Most methods that convert numeric values to byte arrays, such as BigInteger.ToByteArray and BitConverter.GetBytes, return byte arrays in little-endian order.

The constructor expects positive values in the byte array to use sign-and-magnitude representation, and negative values to use two's complement representation. In other words, if the highest-order bit of the highest-order byte in value is set, the resulting BigInteger value is negative. Depending on the source of the byte array, this may cause a positive value to be misinterpreted as a negative value. Byte arrays are typically generated in the following ways:

  • By calling the BigInteger.ToByteArray method. Because this method returns a byte array with the highest-order bit of the highest-order byte in the array set to zero for positive values, there is no chance of misinterpreting a positive value as negative. Unmodified byte arrays created by the ToByteArray method always successfully round-trip when they are passed to the BigInteger(Byte[]) constructor.

  • By calling the BitConverter.GetBytes method and passing it a signed integer as a parameter. Because signed integers handle both sign-and-magnitude representation and two's complement representation, there is no chance of misinterpreting a positive value as negative.

  • By calling the BitConverter.GetBytes method and passing it an unsigned integer as a parameter. Because unsigned integers are represented by their magnitude only, positive values can be misinterpreted as negative values. To prevent this misinterpretation, you can add a zero-byte value to the end of the array. The example in the next section provides an illustration.

  • By creating a byte array either dynamically or statically without necessarily calling any of the previous methods, or by modifying an existing byte array. To prevent positive values from being misinterpreted as negative values, you can add a zero-byte value to the end of the array.

If value is an empty Byte array, the new BigInteger object is initialized to a value of BigInteger.Zero. If value is null, the constructor throws an ArgumentNullException.

Source:
BigInteger.cs
Source:

Initializes a new instance of the BigInteger structure using a Decimal value.

public:
 BigInteger(System::Decimal value);
public BigInteger (decimal value);
new System.Numerics.BigInteger : decimal -> System.Numerics.BigInteger
Public Sub New (value As Decimal)

Parameters

Decimal

A decimal number.

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the BigInteger(Decimal) constructor to instantiate a BigInteger object. It defines an array of Decimal values, and then passes each value to the BigInteger(Decimal) constructor. Note that the Decimal value is truncated instead of rounded when it is assigned to the BigInteger object.

decimal[] decimalValues = { -1790.533m, -15.1514m, 18903.79m, 9180098.003m };
foreach (decimal decimalValue in decimalValues)

   BigInteger number = new BigInteger(decimalValue);
   Console.WriteLine("Instantiated BigInteger value {0} from the Decimal value {1}.",
                     number, decimalValue);
}
// The example displays the following output:
//    Instantiated BigInteger value -1790 from the Decimal value -1790.533.
//    Instantiated BigInteger value -15 from the Decimal value -15.1514.

let decimalValues = [ -1790.533m; -15.1514m; 18903.79m; 9180098.003m ]

for decimalValue in decimalValues do
    let number = bigint decimalValue
    printfn $"Instantiated BigInteger value {number} from the Decimal value {decimalValue}."
// The example displays the following output:

For Each decimalValue As Decimal In decimalValues
   Dim number As New BigInteger(decimalValue)
   Console.WriteLine("Instantiated BigInteger value {0} from the Decimal value {1}.",
                     number, decimalValue)

Remarks

The result of calling this constructor is identical to explicitly assigning a Decimal value to a BigInteger variable.

Calling this constructor can cause data loss; any fractional part of value is truncated when instantiating a BigInteger object.

BigInteger(Double)

Source:
BigInteger.cs
Source:
BigInteger.cs
Source:
BigInteger.cs

Initializes a new instance of the BigInteger structure using a double-precision floating-point value.

public:
 BigInteger(double value);
public BigInteger (double value);
new System.Numerics.BigInteger : double -> System.Numerics.BigInteger
Public Sub New (value As Double)

Parameters

value
Double

A double-precision floating-point value.

Exceptions

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the BigInteger(Double) constructor to instantiate a BigInteger object. It also illustrates the loss of precision that may occur when you use the Double data type. A Double is assigned a large value, which is then assigned to a BigInteger object. As the output shows, this assignment involves a loss of precision. Both values are then incremented by one. The output shows that the BigInteger object reflects the changed value, whereas the Double object does not.

// Create a BigInteger from a large double value.
double doubleValue = -6e20;
BigInteger bigIntValue = new BigInteger(doubleValue);
Console.WriteLine("Original Double value: {0:N0}", doubleValue);
Console.WriteLine("Original BigInteger value: {0:N0}", bigIntValue);
// Increment and then display both values.
doubleValue++;
bigIntValue += BigInteger.One;
Console.WriteLine("Incremented Double value: {0:N0}", doubleValue);
Console.WriteLine("Incremented BigInteger value: {0:N0}", bigIntValue);
// The example displays the following output:

'    Incremented BigInteger value: -599,999,999,999,999,999,999

Remarks

Any fractional part of the value parameter is truncated when instantiating a BigInteger object.

Because of the lack of precision of the Double data type, calling this constructor can cause data loss.

The BigInteger value that results from calling this constructor is identical to the value that results from explicitly assigning a Double value to a BigInteger.

Remarks

There is no loss of precision when instantiating a BigInteger object by using this constructor.

The BigInteger value that results from calling this constructor is identical to the value that results from assigning an Int32 value to a BigInteger.

The BigInteger structure does not include constructors with a parameter of type Byte, Int16, SByte, or UInt16. However, the Int32 type supports the implicit conversion of 8-bit and 16-bit signed and unsigned integers to signed 32-bit integers. As a result, this constructor is called if value is any one of these four integral types.

Remarks

There is no loss of precision when instantiating a BigInteger object by using this constructor.

The BigInteger value that results from calling this constructor is identical to the value that results from assigning an Int64 value to a BigInteger.

BigInteger(Single)

Source:
BigInteger.cs
Source:
BigInteger.cs
Source:
BigInteger.cs

Initializes a new instance of the BigInteger structure using a single-precision floating-point value.

public:
 BigInteger(float value);
public BigInteger (float value);
new System.Numerics.BigInteger : single -> System.Numerics.BigInteger
Public Sub New (value As Single)

Parameters

value
Single

A single-precision floating-point value.

Exceptions

Examples

The following example illustrates the use of the BigInteger(Single) constructor to instantiate a BigInteger object. It also illustrates the loss of precision that may occur when you use the Single data type. A Single is assigned a large negative value, which is then assigned to a BigInteger object. As the output shows, this assignment involves a loss of precision. Both values are then incremented by one. The output shows that the BigInteger object reflects the changed value, whereas the Single object does not.

// Create a BigInteger from a large negative Single value
float negativeSingle = Single.MinValue;
BigInteger negativeNumber = new BigInteger(negativeSingle);

Console.WriteLine(negativeSingle.ToString("N0"));
Console.WriteLine(negativeNumber.ToString("N0"));

negativeSingle++;
negativeNumber++;

Console.WriteLine(negativeSingle.ToString("N0"));
Console.WriteLine(negativeNumber.ToString("N0"));

Remarks

Any fractional part of the value parameter is truncated when instantiating a BigInteger object.

Because of the lack of precision of the Single data type, calling this constructor can result in data loss.

The BigInteger value that results from calling this constructor is identical to the value that results from explicitly assigning a Single value to a BigInteger.
