Complex Implicit Conversion (UInt32 to Complex)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Widening Operator CType ( _
    value As UInteger _
) As Complex

public static implicit operator Complex (
    uint value
)

Remarks

The overloads of the Implicit operator define the types from which a compiler can automatically convert a Complex object without an explicit casting operator (in C#) or a call to a conversion function (in Visual Basic). They are widening conversions that do not involve data loss and do not throw an OverflowException.

This overload lets the compiler handle conversions from an unsigned 32-bit integer to a complex number, as the following example shows. Note that the result of the conversion is a complex number whose real part is equal to the unsigned 32-bit integer and whose imaginary part is equal to zero.

Dim intValue As UInteger = 197461
Dim c1 As System.Numerics.Complex = intValue
outputBlock.Text &= c1.ToString() + vbCrLf
' The example displays the following output:
'       (197461, 0)

int intValue = 197461;
System.Numerics.Complex c1 = intValue;
outputBlock.Text += c1 + "\n";
// The example displays the following output:
//       (197461, 0)
