String Parsing Methods

String parsing methods convert string values into numbers or boolean-style numbers.

Invalid input raises a runtime error.

Parses decimal numeric text.

Example:

'123.45'.parse_num();
'-10'.parse_num();

Parses hexadecimal text.

Example:

'FF'.parse_hex();       // 255
'0x10'.parse_hex();     // 16

Parses binary text.

Example:

'1010'.parse_bin();     // 10
'0b1010'.parse_bin();

Parses boolean text.

Accepted values are `true`, `false`, `1`, and `0`.

Example:

'true'.parse_bool();    // true
'0'.parse_bool();       // false
