Convert.ToByte Method (UInt64)
.NET Framework 4.5
Converts the value of the specified 64-bit unsigned integer to an equivalent 8-bit unsigned integer.
This API is not CLS-compliant. Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- value
- Type: System.UInt64
The 64-bit unsigned integer to convert.
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| OverflowException | value is greater than Byte.MaxValue. |
The following example converts an array of unsigned long integers to Byte values.
ulong[] numbers= { UInt64.MinValue, 121, 340, UInt64.MaxValue }; byte result; foreach (ulong number in numbers) { try { result = Convert.ToByte(number); Console.WriteLine("Converted the {0} value {1} to the {2} value {3}.", number.GetType().Name, number, result.GetType().Name, result); } catch (OverflowException) { Console.WriteLine("The {0} value {1} is outside the range of the Byte type.", number.GetType().Name, number); } } // The example displays the following output: // Converted the UInt64 value 0 to the Byte value 0. // Converted the UInt64 value 121 to the Byte value 121. // The UInt64 value 340 is outside the range of the Byte type. // The UInt64 value 18446744073709551615 is outside the range of the Byte type.
