Coerce To Byte Fast Function
Coerce Make Class

Public Function CoerceToByteFast( _
    ByVal vString As String _
    ) As Byte

"Coerce String To Byte (Fast)"
Return the Byte value whose in-memory representation is the same as the first character in string vString.
Faster version of the CoerceToByte function which has restrictive argument types (to avoid argument fix-up overhead).

Examples:

    CoerceToByteFast(Chr$(0)) = 0
    CoerceToByteFast(Chr$(1)) = 1
    CoerceToByteFast(Chr$(255)) = 255

vString: The string whose first character is to be interpreted as a Byte value.
Note: Function does NOT generate an error if vString empty or more than one character long.
Note: If vString if more than one character long, the only the first character is used.
