BigInteger.Add Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Adds two BigInteger values and returns the result.

Namespace: System.Numerics
Assembly: System.Numerics (in System.Numerics.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function Add ( _
    left As BigInteger, _
    right As BigInteger _
) As BigInteger

public static BigInteger Add(
    BigInteger left,
    BigInteger right
)

Parameters

left
Type: System.Numerics.BigInteger
The first value to add.

right
Type: System.Numerics.BigInteger
The second value to add.

Return Value

Type: System.Numerics.BigInteger
The sum of left and right.

Remarks

Languages that do not support operator overloading or custom operators can use the Add method to perform addition using BigInteger values.

The Multiply method is a useful substitute for the addition operator when instantiating a BigInteger variable by assigning it a sum that results from addition, as shown in the following example.

' The statement
'    Dim number As BigInteger = Int64.MaxValue + Int32.MaxValue
' produces compiler error BC30439: Constant expression not representable in type 'Long'.
' The alternative:
Dim number As BigInteger = BigInteger.Add(Int64.MaxValue, Int32.MaxValue)

// The statement:
//    BigInteger number = Int64.MaxValue + Int32.MaxValue;
// produces compiler error CS0220: The operation overflows at compile time in checked mode.
// The alternative:
BigInteger number = BigInteger.Add(Int64.MaxValue, Int32.MaxValue);
