ValueString is intended to be used for convenience when there is a need to initialize typed instances from culture-neutral (invariant) strings - often read from a simple configuration file or a database table.

// ValueString uses the invariant culture when converting
// objects to string if they implement IFormattable.
// So the following value contains "1.5" (dot-separated) even if (1.5).ToString()
// returns "1,5" (comma-separated) due to the current culture.
var value = ValueString.Of(1.5);

// "As" method uses the invariant culture by default.
// It also has an overload accepting an IFormatProvider.
var number = value.As<double>(); // Calls double.Parse.

// Nullable values are supported.
value = ValueString.Of(default(double?));
number = value.As<double>(); // Throws an InvalidCastException.
var nullable = value.As<double?>(); // null.

// Enums are supported.
value = ValueString.Of("Red"); // Enum field name.
var red = value.As<ConsoleColor>();

value = ValueString.Of("12"); // Enum field value.
var green = value.As<ConsoleColor>();

// You can also cast a "dynamic" ValueString to the target type directly.
dynamic d = value;
number = (double)d;

// "Is" is just like "As", but calls the type's TryParse method instead of Parse.
value = ValueString.Of("1.1.1.1");
if (value.Is(out IPAddress address)) // Calls IPAddress.TryParse.
    Console.WriteLine("The IP address is: {0}", address);

// An implicit operator exists converting strings to ValueString instances.
value = "1.5";
