Flash String Converter Library

Null-safety string manipulating converter extensions speed up the development process. These extensions return null-safety values, but they can be modified with C# operators:

Remove null-safety

Use casting to avoid conversion errors:

int number = (int)"32".ToInt32();

With null-safety

Use ? operator or Nullable<T> generic:

int? number = "32".ToInt32();
Nullable<int> number = "32".ToInt32();

Null checking

In case of a conversion error, the extended string functions will return null. So it is worth checking its condition.

if(number!=null) Console.WriteLine(number*2);
else throw new FormatException("Error"); 

or

Console.WriteLine(number * 2 ?? throw new FormatException("Error"));
