nuint

Struct · built-in type

struct nuint : IComparable<nuint>, IEquatable<nuint>, IHashable

An unsigned integer of the size of a pointer (like C’s size_t).

Arithmetic is checked: an overflow, a division by zero or a conversion that loses the value ends the program with a panic, unless the code is unchecked (then it wraps around). See the language guide (basics).

Methods

Name	Description
ToString	The number as decimal text: 42.ToString() is "42".
Equals	Whether the numbers are equal (also a == b).
CompareTo	Compares the numbers: -1, 0 or 1.
GetHashCode	A hash code of the number, for Dictionary keys.
