Byte.MaxValue Field

public: System::Byte MaxValue = 255;

public const byte MaxValue = 255;

val mutable MaxValue : byte

Public Const MaxValue As Byte = 255

Field Value

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to use the MaxValue field to screen variable inputs for values that are outside the range of possible byte values.

public void MinMaxFields(int numberToSet)
{
 if(numberToSet <= (int)Byte.MaxValue && numberToSet >= (int)Byte.MinValue)
 {
 // You must explicitly convert an integer to a byte.
 MemberByte = (Byte)numberToSet;

 // Displays MemberByte using the ToString() method.
 Console.WriteLine("The MemberByte value is {0}", MemberByte.ToString());
 }
 else
 {
 Console.WriteLine("The value {0} is outside of the range of possible Byte values", numberToSet.ToString());
 }
}

let minMaxFields numberToSet =
 if numberToSet <= int Byte.MaxValue && numberToSet >= int Byte.MinValue then
 // You must explicitly convert an integer to a byte.
 let myByte = byte numberToSet

 printfn $"The MemberByte value is {myByte}"
 else
 printfn $"The value {numberToSet} is outside of the range of possible Byte values"

Public Sub MinMaxFields(ByVal numberToSet As Integer)
 If numberToSet <= CInt([Byte].MaxValue) And numberToSet >= CInt([Byte].MinValue) Then
 ' You must explicitly convert an integer to a byte.
 MemberByte = CType(numberToSet, [Byte])

 ' Displays MemberByte using the ToString() method.
 Console.WriteLine("The MemberByte value is {0}.", MemberByte.ToString())
 Else
 Console.WriteLine("The value {0} is outside of the range of possible Byte values.", numberToSet.ToString())
 End If
End Sub

Remarks

The value of this constant is 255 (hexadecimal 0xFF).
