as 运算符类似于强制转换操作。但是，如果无法进行转换，则 as 返回 null 而非引发异常。

as 运算符只执行引用转换和装箱转换。as 运算符无法执行其他转换，如用户定义的转换，这类转换应使用强制转换表达式来执行。

expression as type

等效于(但只计算一次 expression)
expression is type ? (type)expression : (type)null

as 运算符用于在兼容的引用类型之间执行转换。例如：

// cs_keyword_as.cs// The as operator.using System;class Class1{}class Class2{}class MainClass{ static void Main() { object[] objArray = new object[6]; objArray[0] = new Class1(); objArray[1] = new Class2(); objArray[2] = "hello"; objArray[3] = 123; objArray[4] = 123.4; objArray[5] = null; for (int i = 0; i < objArray.Length; ++i) { string s = objArray[i] as string; Console.Write("{0}:", i); if (s != null) { Console.WriteLine("'" + s + "'"); } else { Console.WriteLine("not a string"); } } }}//=============================================================// 0:not a string1:not a string2:'hello'3:not a string4:not a string5:not a string
