C-Sharp ConvertToUInt16 Example – Code Sample Syntax
C-Sharp ConvertToUInt16 Example – Code Sample Syntax
Purpose: – Illustrates using C-Sharp ConvertToUInt16 Code Example.
Purpose:
Converts numbers into UShort data type – UShort data type is a
16-bit (2-byte) unsigned integer that can hold values from 0 to
65,535 (unsigned). Rounds fractions to whole numbers
Syntax:
CUShort(expression)
CUShort(expression)
| Parameters | Description | expression | 0 to 65,535 (unsigned) – will throw Exception if negative number is passed in. Rounds fractions to whole numbers |
|---|
| Result Data Type | Description | UShort | 16-bit (2-byte) unsigned integer |
|---|
| Quick Example | Convert.ToUInt16(1.33) // Returns 1 |
|---|

Console.WriteLine("Example #3: Convert.ToUInt16(5.5)");
ushort UShort3 = Convert.ToUInt16(5.5);
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToUInt16(UShort3)); // Returns 6
//Prevent console from closing before you press enter

Prerequistes:
- Install C-Sharp (Express or Standard Edition)
- Install SQL Server Express
- Download Northwind and pubs Database
- Attach Northwind Database to Databases in Sql Express
- Attach pubs Database to Databases in Sql Express
Notes:
- Console Application is used to simplify things, but Windows Forms or Web Forms could also be used
- You can build a library of syntax examples by using same project over and over and just commenting out what you do not want to execute in Module1.cs
Instructions:
- Use C-Sharp 2010 Express or Standard Edition
- Create new project;
- Click File/New Project
- Select Console Application Template
- Select C-Sharp for Language
- name of project could be C-Sharp_Syntax.
- Add New folder named “Functions”
- Right-click project name in solution explorer;
- add new folder;
- name of folder could be: Functions
- Add New subfolder named “ConversionFunctions”
- Right-click Functions folder in solution explorer;
- add new folder;
- name of folder could be: ConversionFunctions
- Add New subfolder named “TypeConversionFunctions”
- Right-click ConversionFunctions folder in solution explorer;
- add new folder;
- name of folder could be: TypeConversionFunctions
- Add Class Named clsConvertToUInt16 to TypeConversionFunctions folder
- Right-click TypeConversionFunctions folder;
- add new item;
- Select class
- Class name could be clsConvertToUInt16
- Click on cs in code in step 1 above to copy code into clsConvertToUInt16.cs
- Click on cs in code in step 2 above to copy code into Module1.cs
