Generic math

Provides a way to perform generic math functions on the following numeric types: byte, sbyte, decimal, double, float, int, uint, nint, nuint, long, ulong, short, ushort. The following operations are supported: add, subtract, multiply, divide, modulo, negate, plus, increment, decrement, leftShift, rightShift, onesComplement, and, or, xor.

Other features:

• Supports converting at runtime (when the type to convert to/from is not known at compile time).
• Contains a JSON converter which cleanly and correctly converts these numbers from and to JSON.

Note:

• This functionality can nowadays also be achieved by using the GenericMath functionality of .NET 7. C# 11 also has to be used because it makes use of static abstract members in interfaces, which is introduced in C# 11. See: Microsoft - Generic math
