这些基本类型也象类一样拥有各自的方法和属性，熟练运用它们能让你的程序更优雅和更有面向对象的味道。

基本类型的重要方法和属性举例

        Dim i As Int32

        Dim s As String

        Dim ss() As String

        Dim by As Byte

        Dim d As Double

        Dim b As Boolean

        Dim da As Date

        Dim c As Char

        Dim cc() As Char

        ''''整数操作

        i = Int32.Parse("￥123", Globalization.NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol) ''''123

        i = Int32.MaxValue ''''2147483647

        i = Int32.MinValue ''''-2147483648

        by = Byte.Parse("1") ''''1

        ''''浮点数操作

        d = Double.PositiveInfinity ''''正无穷大

        d = Double.Epsilon ''''4.94065645841247E-324
