Remarks
NSNumber provides explicit operator conversions that allow you to cast an NSNumber into any of the core .NET types (float, double, int, uint, short, ushort, byte, sbyte and bool).
NSNumber also provides implicit operator conversions that allow you to create NSNumber instances from the core .NET types (float, double, int, uint, short, ushort, byte, sbyte and bool).
// Creates an NSNumber that contains the integer value 4.
NSNumber d = 4;
// Obtains a float from an NSNumber using explicit casts:
float asFloat = (float) d;
// Passes a float to a method taking an NSNumber implicitly:
void RunForSeconds (NSNumber seconds)
{
...
}
[...]
RunForSeconds (4);
