Speed Structure

Represents a speed measurement, in meters per second, as a double-precision floating-point number.

Inheritance

Implements
IComparable, IComparableSpeed, IComparableDouble, IConvertible, IEquatableSpeed, IEquatableDouble, IFormattable

Remarks

This class behaves just like a Double representing a speed in meters per second; it is implicitly castable to and from a Double and therefore can be generally used "as" a double, but it has the advantage of handling conversions to and from other speed representations, specifically miles per hour, kilometers per hour, feet per minute, inches per second, knots and Mach.

Example

This example converts mph to km/h:
C#
public double GetKilometersPerHour(double milesPerHour)
{
    return Speed.FromMilesPerHour(milesPerHour).ToKilometersPerHour();
}

Constructors

Speed Creates a new Speed.

ToString Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation.
(Overrides ValueTypeToString)
ToString(IFormatProvider) Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation using the specified culture-specific format information.
ToString(String) Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation, using the specified format.
ToString(String, IFormatProvider) Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation using the specified format and culture-specific format information.
TryParse(String, Speed) Converts the string representation of a number to its Speed equivalent. A return value indicates whether the conversion succeeded or failed.
TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, Speed) Converts the string representation of a number in a specified style and culture-specific format to its Speed equivalent. A return value indicates whether the conversion succeeded or failed.
