C# | UInt64 Struct
In C#, UInt64 struct is used to represent 64-bit unsigned integers(also termed as the ulong data type) starting from range 0 to 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. It also provides different types of methods to compare instances of this type, convert the value of an instance to its String representation, convert the String representation of a number to an instance of this type, etc. This struct is defined under System namespace. UInt64 struct inherits the ValueType class which inherits the Object class.
Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| MaxValue | Represents the largest possible value of UInt64. This field is constant. |
| MinValue | Represents the smallest possible value of UInt64. This field is constant. |
Example:
// C# program to illustrate the // fields of UInt64 structusing System; class GFG { // Main Method static public void Main() { // Unsigned 64-bit integer ulong val = 18446744073709551615; // Checking the unsigned integer if (val.Equals(UInt64.MinValue)) { Console.WriteLine("Equal to MinValue!"); } else if (val.Equals(UInt64.MaxValue)) { Console.WriteLine("Equal to MaxValue!"); } else { Console.WriteLine("Not Equal!"); } }} |
Output:
Equal to MaxValue!
Methods
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| CompareTo() | Compares the current instance to a specified object or UInt64 and returns an indication of their relative values. |
| Equals() | Returns a value which shows whether the current instance is equal to a specified object or UInt64. |
| GetHashCode() | Returns the hash code for the current instance. |
| GetTypeCode() | Returns the TypeCode for value type UInt64. |
| Parse() | Converts the string representation of a number to its 64-bit unsigned integer equivalent. |
| ToString() | Converts the numeric value of the current instance to its equivalent string representation. |
| TryParse() | Tries to convert the string representation of a number to its 64-bit unsigned integer equivalent. A return value indicates whether the conversion succeeded or failed. |
Example:
// C# program to illustrate how to get the // hash code of the 64-bit Unsigned integerusing System; class GFG { // Main Method static public void Main() { // UInt64 variable ulong myval = 3654121225155; // Get the hash code // Using GetHashCode Method int res = myval.GetHashCode(); Console.WriteLine("The hash code of myval is: {0}", res); }} |
Output:
The hash code of myval is: -895944559
