Examples

The following example determines whether a character is a hexadecimal character and, if it is, writes the corresponding decimal value to the console.

Dim testChar As Char = "e"
If Uri.IsHexDigit(testChar) = True Then 
  outputBlock.Text &= testChar
  outputBlock.Text &= "is the hexadecimal representation of "
  outputBlock.Text &= Uri.FromHex(testChar)
  outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf
Else
  outputBlock.Text &= testChar
  outputBlock.Text &= "is not a hexadecimal character"
  outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf
End If

char  testChar = 'e';
if (Uri.IsHexDigit(testChar) == true) {
    outputBlock.Text += testChar;
    outputBlock.Text += "is the hexadecimal representation of ";
    outputBlock.Text += Uri.FromHex(testChar);
    outputBlock.Text += "\n";
}
else {
    outputBlock.Text += testChar;
    outputBlock.Text += "is not a hexadecimal character\n";
}

char  testChar = 'e';
if (Uri.IsHexDigit(testChar) == true)
    Console.WriteLine("'{0}' is the hexadecimal representation of {1}", testChar, Uri.FromHex(testChar));
else 
    Console.WriteLine("'{0}' is not a hexadecimal character", testChar);
