Implements: IEquatable>

Remarks¶

Use this struct to indicate the presence or absence of a value without resorting to null references. When an instance has a value, the HasValue property is true and the Value property returns the contained value. If no value is present, HasValue is false and accessing Value throws an exception. This pattern is useful for APIs that need to distinguish between an explicit 'no value' state and a default value.
