Decimal.ToByte(Decimal) Method

Definition

Converts the value of the specified Decimal to the equivalent 8-bit unsigned integer.

public:
 static System::Byte ToByte(System::Decimal value);
public static byte ToByte (decimal value);
static member ToByte : decimal -> byte
Public Shared Function ToByte (value As Decimal) As Byte

Parameters

value
Decimal

The decimal number to convert.

Returns

An 8-bit unsigned integer equivalent to value.

Exceptions

value is less than Byte.MinValue or greater than Byte.MaxValue.

Examples

The following example uses the ToByte method to convert decimal numbers to Byte values.

using System;

class Example
{
   public static void Main( )
   {
      decimal[] values = { 123m, new Decimal(78000, 0, 0, false, 3),
                           78.999m, 255.999m, 256m,

                           -1m,  -128.999m, -129m };

      foreach (var value in values) {
         try {
            byte number = Decimal.ToByte(value);
            Console.WriteLine("{0} --> {1}", value, number);

Remarks

Parameter value is rounded to the nearest integer value toward zero, and that result is returned.

You can also convert a Decimal value to an 8-bit unsigned integer by using the Explicit assignment operator. Because the operator performs a narrowing conversion, you must use a casting operator in C# or a conversion function in Visual Basic.
