If I got decimal number like 14.50 and I want to be represented like decimal 10.2
0000000014.50
how can I do this?
Thank you
Use custom numeric format string:
var value = 14.50m;
string valueString = value.ToString("0000000000.00");
0 is a placeholder: Replaces the zero with the corresponding digit if one is present; otherwise, zero appears in the result string.
If you don't have an issue with the data type being converted to string then you could use Padding in c#.

How do I parse a string with a decimal point to a double?

I am writing a program to get data from microcontroller to PC. The data is in float format. I tried to convert the string into float using Convert.ToSingle(string), but the conversion result is wrong:
"0.11" is converted to 11, sometimes 12.
"0.10" is converted to 10. etc
As you can see, it is losing the leading 0. , which is unexpected. How could this happen?
Your problem is culture specific. In some cultures float numbers are separated by a , and in some they are separated by a .
In your case
String a = "0,11";
Convert.ToSingle(a)
should result in your desired outcome of 0,11.
So you should explicitly specify a relevant culture that uses . as decimal separator. One possibility is the invariant culture which is based on the English language.
Try the following:
String a = "0.11";
Convert.ToSingle(a, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

Why does 0.ToString("#.##") return an empty string instead of 0.00 or at least 0?

I have several decimal numbers that I need to show as strings (no need for decimal places). I use the following code:
mytextblock.text= mydecimalnumber.ToString("#");
However this code will show nothing if the number is 0. I need to display a "0" instead of an empty string. I can do this using if and else but I don't think this is the best solution to do with many decimal variables.
Some user "David.." posted this answer and it worked for me but then he deleted it later:
He mentioned that ToString("#") will only show digits that are not zeros.
In order to default to 0, I should use ToString("0")

I've this problem and can't find a solution.
This is super easy and i don't know why can't i find a solution.
Problem:
if a value returns for example "16.60", in c# i'll read "16.6", but i need 0 as well, because of paypal API, wich only accepts a value with no decimal numbers, or if it has to have decimal numbers the minimum and maximum must be 2.
So how can i make this?
i've tried this:
string value_f = "16,6";
decimal value_f_d = decimal.Parse(value_f);
value_f_d = (decimal)Math.Round(value_f_d, 2);
value_f = value_f_d.ToString("#.##");
value_f = value_f.Replace(',', '.');
i want this output: 16.60, but gives this: 16.6
string output = value_f_d.ToString("#.00", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
(using System.Globalization in your using declarations at the top)

I have a integer like this i.e 3356890. I'm converting it to string and showing on screen.
Now I want to display like this 3,356,890.
How to do?
You can use:
value = 1234567890;
Console.WriteLine(value.ToString("0,0", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture));
// Displays 1,234,567,890
However, for the purpose of internationalization and localization, it's probably best to allow the user's current culture settings to determine how to format the number.

Take a look please here,
Number string format
string res = string.Format(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, "{0:#,##0}", 3356890);
int val = 3356890;
string valString = val.ToString("#,##0")

Formatting a float to 2 decimal places
If I have a float that consists of something like 153.2154879, is there any way to convert it to string but only show 4 decimal places? I know I can format it using "000.000", but the front number doesnt always have to be 3 digits. So is there a way to show all the front numbers (153), but only the first 4 characters after the point in a string?
Something like this should do:
your_number.ToString("0.####");
This will show a max of 4 decimal places.
I usually use a format string like "#0.0000".
You can use the C# function Math.Round function.
float a= 153.213456;
Math.Round(a,3);
this would round up the number to 153.213
then get convert it to string.
