Parse()
OutputVar := MfBigInt.Parse(s)
OutputVar := MfBigInt.Parse(s, base)
Converts the s representation of a number to its MfBigInt equivalent
s
An string var of object convert.
Can be var or instance of any MfObject derived object that contains numeric value
Returns MfBigInt instance equivalent to the number contained in s. ReturnAsObject property is set to true.
Throws MfInvalidOperationException if not called as a static method.
Throws MfArgumentNullException if s is null.
Throws MfFormatException if s in incorrect format.
Throws MfException for any other errors.
Static method
Sign can be denoted with a leading + or -
Parse(s) can parse different base string values.
When s is a string var s can contain the following values after any leading sign to denote base
0x to denote hex base 16 eg: 0xFC2B4A
0b to denote binary base 2 eg: +0b1011100101011
0 to denote octal base 8 eg: 01574364
When binary value is being parsed and sign is omitted then the the first bit defines negative or positive. 1 denotes negative and 0 denotes positive.

Converts the s representation of a number to its MfBigInt equivalent. Uses base value to decode s.
s
An string var of object convert.
Can be var or instance of any MfObject derived object that contains numeric value
base
The Base that s is encoding in. Base values from 2 to 95 are accepted.
Can be any type that matches IsInteger or var integer.
Returns MfBigInt instance equivalent to the number contained in s. ReturnAsObject property is set to true.
Throws MfInvalidOperationException if not called as a static method.
Throws MfArgumentNullException if s is null.
Throws MfArgumentOutOfRangeException if Base is less then 2 or greater then 95.
Throws MfFormatException if s in incorrect format.
Throws MfException for any other errors.
Static Method
Sign can be denoted with a leading + or -
When binary (base 2) value is being parsed and sign is omitted then the the first bit defines negative or positive. 1 denotes negative and 0 denotes positive.
