Old classic casting in C#

The classic difference between int.Parse(), Convert.ToInt32() and int.TryParse().

int.Parse(string s)

Simply, int.Parse (string s) method converts the string to integer. If string s is null, then it will throw ArgumentNullException. If string s is other than integer value, then it will throw FormatException. If string s represents out of integer ranges, then it will throw OverflowException

 

Convert.ToInt32(string s)

 Simply, Convert.ToInt32(string s) method converts the string to integer. If string s is null, then it will return 0 rather than throw ArgumentNullException. 

 If string s is other than integer value, then it will throw FormatException. If string s represents out of integer ranges, then it will throw OverflowException.

 

Int.TryParse(string s,Out)

Simply int.TryParse(string s,out int) method converts the string to integer out variable and returns true if successfully parsed, otherwise false. If string s is null, then the out variable has 0 rather than throw ArgumentNullException. If string s is other than integer value, then the out variable will have 0 rather than FormatException. If string s represents out of integer ranges, then the out variable will have 0 rather than throw OverflowException.

on iA as a developer and the some cool tools.

I started this year as a software developper for Morneau Shepell. Good company with some flaws like everywhere but with a good work environnement.

Now after 5 months as a software dev for Industrielle Alliance I realize that not everything that shines is gold. Good things in this new position but also many small details that I do not necessarily like.

I had to understand how this teams uses Kanban and agile with a team who is still working on his mission** and the scope of their tasks.

Anyways here some cool features:



- Azure DevOps: This is of course the widely used tool for agile teams with Microsoft.

- Microsoft Whiteboard. I like this tool, very creative.

- Classic Teams, Microsoft Teams. I say classic with reserve cause Teams is a recent tool added to the office Microsoft toolbox.

- Workday. Great RH tool, user friendly.

There are a few more tools  but these were the ones I got more use of in my daily tasks.


And here some Agile notes that got me thinking on a certain point.
