Parse

Attemps to parse a string of characters of the specified base type.

 Public Function Parse(
	  ByVal s As String ) As BigInteger

Parameters

s

[ByVal] String. The string of characters to attempt to be parsed.

Return Values

Remarks

If the string could not be parsed, an exception is thrown.

3 base types are supported for parsing (Decimal, Hex, Binary.) The string must include a base type specifier for Hex and Binary. Decimal is the default.

Hex Specifiers: 0x, 0X, &H, &H - (0xFF, 0XFF, &HFF, &HFF)
Binary Specifiers: 0b, 0B - (0b00001111, 0B000011111)

 Dim b As BigInteger
 Set b = BigInteger.Parse("-&H7FFF")
 Debug.Print b.ToString("X") ' 8001
 

Parsing is not case sensitive.
