Exceptions| Exception | Condition |

| ArgumentNullException | A non-optional argument was null |
| InvalidOperationException | This Entity is invalid. |
Remarks
The default value is zero for numeric fields, invalid value for identifiers and
entities, and empty for strings and containers.
This method is a shortcut that will look up the field by name. If you want to call it
on many entities, it is faster if you look up the field yourself.
