The following code sample illustrates the conversion of a Byte value to a Decimal one, using ToDecimal.
public void ConvertByteDecimal(byte byteVal) { decimal decimalVal; // Byte to decimal conversion will not overflow. decimalVal = System.Convert.ToDecimal(byteVal); System.Console.WriteLine("The byte as a decimal is {0}.", decimalVal); // Decimal to byte conversion can overflow. try { byteVal = System.Convert.ToByte(decimalVal); System.Console.WriteLine("The Decimal as a byte is {0}.", byteVal); } catch (System.OverflowException) { System.Console.WriteLine( "The decimal value is too large for a byte."); } }
public void ConvertByteDecimal(ubyte byteVal)
{
System.Decimal decimalVal;
// Byte to decimal conversion will not overflow.
decimalVal = System.Convert.ToDecimal(byteVal);
System.Console.WriteLine("The byte as a decimal is {0}.", decimalVal);
// Decimal to byte conversion can overflow.
try {
byteVal = System.Convert.ToByte(decimalVal);
System.Console.WriteLine("The Decimal as a byte is {0}.",
System.Convert.ToString(byteVal));
}
catch (System.OverflowException exp) {
System.Console.WriteLine(
"The decimal value is too large for a byte.");
}
} //ConvertByteDecimal
