How to extend Math class

[Chesnokov Yuriy]

How to add to it more functions and still use Math.SomeFunction() convention. Math class is static, that is sealed. Is it possible to use partial or any other mechanisms?

You can't. Create your own utility class for the additional functions.

You can't add anything to a sealed class. With C# 3.0 however, which ships with Visual Studio 2008, you can use a technique called "extension methods" to certain datatypes.

Use a utility class like this public static class AdvancedMath { //Only if you want to call the method from here //Or rewrite the signature of the methods/properties you want public static decimal Abs(decimal value) { return Math.Abs(value); } //add any additional methods/properties you may have public static double MySpecialMethod(double value) { //do your special processing and return the result } }

Just create your own math class.
