C# ?: Conditional Operator

Question

I have this extract of C# 2.0 source code:

object valueFromDatabase;
decimal result;
valueFromDatabase = DBNull.Value;

result = (decimal)(valueFromDatabase          


        

Answer 1

Your answer would work if you combined both:

result = (decimal)(valueFromDatabase != DBNull.Value ? (decimal)valueFromDatabase : (decimal)0);

At least, a similar situation casting into a parameter for me.
