Methods

CalculateHash(string)

Calculates the hash of a given string using an MD5 value as the first 32 bits.

public static int CalculateHash(string str)

Parameters

str string

The string to be hashed.

Returns

int

The calculated hash.

Remarks

This method is used for a quick and consistent hash function. It should not be considered cryptographically sound or used in security contexts.

CalculateHexHash(string)

Calculates the hexadecimal hash.

public static string CalculateHexHash(string str)

Parameters

str string

The string to be hashed.

Returns

string

The calculated 16 character hexadecimal hash.

DegreesToRadians(double)

Convers degrees to radians.

public static double DegreesToRadians(double degrees)

Parameters

degrees double

The degree value.

Returns

double

The value as radians.

GetDistance(decimal, decimal, decimal, decimal, MeasurementSystem)

Gets the distance between two points on earth using the haversine formula.

public static decimal GetDistance(decimal latitudeOrigin, decimal longitudeOrigin, decimal latitudeDestination, decimal longitudeDestination, MeasurementSystem measurementSystem = MeasurementSystem.Imperial)

Parameters

latitudeOrigin decimal

The latitude origin.

longitudeOrigin decimal

The longitude origin.

latitudeDestination decimal

The latitude destination.

longitudeDestination decimal

The longitude destination.

measurementSystem MeasurementSystem

(Optional) The measurement system.

Returns

decimal

The distance.

Remarks

Uses the haversine formula to calculate the "as-the-crow-flies" distance between two points on earth.
