Extension methods to Convert Strings to Various Fundamental types

These extension methods converts strings to various types (int, bool, float)
When the string is invalid they return a fallback value.

public static class StringParserExtensions
{
	public static int ParseInt(this string part, int fallbackValue = 0)
	{
		if (!int.TryParse(part.Trim(), out int anInt))
		{
			anInt = fallbackValue;
		}
		return anInt;
	}

	public static bool ParseBool(this string part, bool fallbackValue = false)
	{
		if (!bool.TryParse(part.Trim(), out bool aBool))
		{
			aBool = fallbackValue;
		}
		return aBool;
	}

	public static float ParseFloat(this string part, float fallbackValue = 0.0f)
	{
		if (!float.TryParse(part.Trim(), out float number))
		{
			number = fallbackValue;
		}
		return number;
	}
}

Example usage:

  stationLocation.StationId = parts[0].ParseInt(0);
