C# | Byte.MaxValue Field

The MaxValue field of Byte Struct is used to represent the maximum value of the byte data type. The value of this field is constant means that the user cannot change the value of this field. The value of this field is 255. Its hexadecimal value is 0xFF.

Syntax:

public const byte MaxValue = 255;

Return Value: This field always returns 255.

Example:

// C# program to illustrate the
// Byte.MaxValue Field
using System;

class GFG {

    // Main Method
    static public void Main()
    {
        // display the Maximum
        // value of Byte struct
        Console.WriteLine("Maximum Value is: " + Byte.MaxValue);

        // taking a variable
        byte var1 = 255;

        if (var1.Equals(Byte.MaxValue))
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Equal..!!");
            Console.WriteLine("Type of var1 is: {0}",
                                 var1.GetTypeCode());
        }

        else
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Not equal..!!");
            Console.WriteLine("Type of var1 is: {0}",
                                 var1.GetTypeCode());
        }
    }
}

Output:

Maximum Value is: 255
Equal..!!
Type of var1 is: Byte
