Remarks

The style parameter defines the style elements (such as white space or the positive sign) that are allowed in the s parameter for the parse operation to succeed. It must be a combination of bit flags from the NumberStyles enumeration. Depending on the value of style, the s parameter may include the following elements:

[ws][$][sign]digits[.fractional_digits][e[sign]digits][ws]

Or, if the style parameter includes AllowHexSpecifier:

[ws]hexdigits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element	Description
ws	Optional white space. White space can appear at the beginning of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite flag, or at the end of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite flag.
$	A culture-specific currency symbol. Its position in the string is defined by the NumberFormatInfo.CurrencyPositivePattern property of the NumberFormatInfo object returned by the GetFormat method of the `provider` parameter. The currency symbol can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol flag.
sign	An optional positive sign. (The method throws an OverflowException if a negative sign is present in `s`.) The sign can appear at the beginning of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign flag, or at the end of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign flag.
digits	A sequence of digits from 0 through 9.
.	A culture-specific decimal point symbol. The decimal point symbol of the culture specified by `provider` can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
fractional_digits	One or more occurrences of the digit 0. Fractional digits can appear in `s` only if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
e	The e or E character, which indicates that the value is represented in exponential notation. The s parameter can represent a number in exponential notation if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowExponent flag.
hexdigits	A sequence of hexadecimal digits from 0 through f, or 0 through F.

Note

Any terminating NUL (U+0000) characters in s are ignored by the parsing operation, regardless of the value of the style argument.

A string with decimal digits only (which corresponds to the NumberStyles.None style) always parses successfully. Most of the remaining NumberStyles members control elements that may be but are not required to be present in this input string. The following table indicates how individual NumberStyles members affect the elements that may be present in s.

Non-composite NumberStyles values	Elements permitted in s in addition to digits
NumberStyles.None	Decimal digits only.
NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint	The . and fractional_digits elements. However, fractional_digits must consist of only one or more 0 digits or an OverflowException is thrown.
NumberStyles.AllowExponent	The `s` parameter can also use exponential notation.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite	The ws element at the beginning of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite	The ws element at the end of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign	A positive sign can appear before digits.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign	A positive sign can appear after digits.
NumberStyles.AllowParentheses	Although this flag is supported, the use of parentheses in `s` results in an OverflowException.
NumberStyles.AllowThousands	Although the group separator symbol can appear in `s`, it can be preceded by only one or more 0 digits.
NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol	The $ element.

If the NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier flag is used, s must be a hexadecimal value without a prefix. For example, "F3" parses successfully, but "0xF3" does not. The only other flags that can be present in style are NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite and NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite. (The NumberStyles enumeration has a composite number style, NumberStyles.HexNumber, that includes both white space flags.)

The provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation, such as a NumberFormatInfo or CultureInfo object. The provider parameter supplies culture-specific information used in parsing. If provider is null, the thread current culture is used.

Remarks

The s parameter contains a number of the form:

[ws][sign]digits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element	Description
ws	Optional white space.
sign	An optional positive sign.
digits	A sequence of digits ranging from 0 to 9.

The s parameter is interpreted using the Integer style. In addition to the byte value's decimal digits, only leading and trailing spaces together with a leading sign are allowed. (If the sign is present, it must be a positive sign or the method throws an OverflowException.) To explicitly define the style elements together with the culture-specific formatting information that can be present in s, use the Byte.Parse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider) method.

The s parameter is parsed using the formatting information in a NumberFormatInfo object supplied by provider. The provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation such as a NumberFormatInfo or CultureInfo object. The provider parameter supplies culture-specific information used in parsing. If provider is null, the thread current culture is used.

ws	Optional white space. White space can appear at the beginning of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite flag, or at the end of s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite flag.
$	A culture-specific currency symbol. Its position in the string is defined by the NumberFormatInfo.CurrencyPositivePattern property of the current culture. The current culture's currency symbol can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol flag.
sign	An optional positive sign. (The method throws an OverflowException if a negative sign is present in `s`.) The sign can appear at the beginning of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign flag, or at the end of `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign flag.
digits	A sequence of digits from 0 through 9.
.	A culture-specific decimal point symbol. The current culture's decimal point symbol can appear in `s` if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
fractional_digits	One or more occurrences of the digit 0. Fractional digits can appear in `s` only if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
e	The e or E character, which indicates that the value is represented in exponential notation. The `s` parameter can represent a number in exponential notation if `style` includes the NumberStyles.AllowExponent flag.
hexdigits	A sequence of hexadecimal digits from 0 through f, or 0 through F.

Note

Any terminating NUL (U+0000) characters in s are ignored by the parsing operation, regardless of the value of the style argument.

Non-composite NumberStyles values	Elements permitted in s in addition to digits
NumberStyles.None	Decimal digits only.
NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint	The . and fractional_digits elements. However, fractional_digits must consist of only one or more 0 digits or an OverflowException is thrown.
NumberStyles.AllowExponent	The `s` parameter can also use exponential notation.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite	The ws element at the beginning of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite	The ws element at the end of `s`.
NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign	A positive sign can appear before digits.
NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign	A positive sign can appear after digits.
NumberStyles.AllowParentheses	Although this flag is supported, the use of parentheses in `s` results in an OverflowException.
NumberStyles.AllowThousands	Although the group separator symbol can appear in `s`, it can be preceded by only one or more 0 digits.
NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol	The $ element.

If the NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier flag is used, s must be a hexadecimal value without a prefix. For example, "F3" parses successfully, but "0xF3" does not. The only other flags that can be combined with it are NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite and NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite. (The NumberStyles enumeration includes a composite number style, NumberStyles.HexNumber, that includes both white space flags.)

The s parameter is parsed using the formatting information in a NumberFormatInfo object that is initialized for the current system culture. To use the formatting information of some other culture, call the Byte.Parse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider) overload.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to convert a string value into a byte value using the Byte.Parse(String) method. The resulting byte value is then displayed to the console.

String^ stringToConvert = " 162";
Byte byteValue;
try
{
   byteValue = Byte::Parse(stringToConvert);
   Console::WriteLine("Converted '{0}' to {1}.", stringToConvert, byteValue);
}   
catch (FormatException^)
{
   Console::WriteLine("Unable to parse '{0}'.", stringToConvert);
}
catch (OverflowException^)
{
   Console::WriteLine("'{0}' is greater than {1} or less than {2}.", 
                     stringToConvert, Byte::MaxValue, Byte::MinValue);
}  
// The example displays the following output to the console:
//       Converted ' 162' to 162.

string stringToConvert = " 162";
byte byteValue;
try
{
   byteValue = Byte.Parse(stringToConvert);
   Console.WriteLine("Converted '{0}' to {1}.", stringToConvert, byteValue);
}
catch (FormatException)
{
   Console.WriteLine("Unable to parse '{0}'.", stringToConvert);
}
catch (OverflowException)
{
   Console.WriteLine("'{0}' is greater than {1} or less than {2}.",
                     stringToConvert, Byte.MaxValue, Byte.MinValue);
}
// The example displays the following output to the console:
//       Converted ' 162' to 162.

let stringToConvert = " 162"
try
    let byteValue = Byte.Parse stringToConvert
    printfn $"Converted '{stringToConvert}' to {byteValue}."
with
| :? FormatException ->
    printfn $"Unable to parse '{stringToConvert}'."
| :? OverflowException ->
    printfn $"'{stringToConvert}' is greater than {Byte.MaxValue} or less than {Byte.MinValue}."

// The example displays the following output to the console:
//       Converted ' 162' to 162.

Dim stringToConvert As String = " 162"
Dim byteValue As Byte
Try
   byteValue = Byte.Parse(stringToConvert)
   Console.WriteLine("Converted '{0}' to {1}.", stringToConvert, byteValue)
Catch e As FormatException
   Console.WriteLine("Unable to parse '{0}'.", stringToConvert)
Catch e As OverflowException
   Console.WriteLine("'{0}' is greater than {1} or less than {2}.", _
                     stringToConvert, Byte.MaxValue, Byte.MinValue)
End Try  
' The example displays the following output to the console:
'       Converted ' 162' to 162.

Remarks

The s parameter contains a number of the form:

[ws][sign]digits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element	Description
ws	Optional white space.
sign	An optional positive or negative sign.
digits	A sequence of digits ranging from 0 to 9.

The s parameter is interpreted using the NumberStyles.Integer style. In addition to the byte value's decimal digits, only leading and trailing spaces together with a leading sign are allowed. (If the sign is present, it must be a positive sign or the method throws an OverflowException.) To explicitly define the style elements that can be present in s, use either the Byte.Parse(String, NumberStyles) or the Byte.Parse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider) method.

The s parameter is parsed using the formatting information in a NumberFormatInfo object that is initialized for the current system culture. For more information, see CurrentInfo. To parse a string using the formatting information of some other culture, use the Byte.Parse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider) method.
