How to format floating point value with fix number of digits?

Is it possible in C# to format a double value with double.ToString in a way that I have always a fixed number of digits, no matter on which side of the decimal point?
Say I wish 6 digits, I want to have these results:
0.00123456789 gives "0.00123"
1.23456789 gives "1.23457"
123.456789 gives "123.457"
0.0000000123456789 gives "0.00000"
12345678.9 gives "12345679" (on overflow I want to see all digits left of decimalpoint)
4.2 gives "4.20000"
I'm experimenting with double.ToString, but cannot find any suitable format string.
Already tried "G6" (gives sometimes exponential format), "F6" (comes close, but 0.123456789 gives "0.123457" which are 7 digits).

I think some of your examples are wrong.
But I still think that I understand what you want to achieve.
I made an extension method.
public static class StringExtensionMethods
{
public static string ToString(this double d, int numberOfDigits)
{
var result = "";
// Split the number.
// Delimiter can vary depending on locale, should consider this and not use "."
string[] split = d.ToString().Split(new string[] { "." }, StringSplitOptions.None);
if(split[0].Count() >= numberOfDigits)
{
result = split[0].Substring(0, numberOfDigits);
}
else
{
result = split[0];
result += ".";
result += split[1];
// Add padding.
while(result.Count() < numberOfDigits +1)
result += "0";
result = result.Substring(0, numberOfDigits + 1);
}
return result;
}
}
I ran it with your examples:
double d0 = 0.00123456789;
double d1 = 1.23456789;
double d2 = 123.456789;
double d3 = 0.0000000123456789;
double d4 = 12345678.9;
double d5 = 4.2;
Console.WriteLine(d0.ToString(6));
Console.WriteLine(d1.ToString(6));
Console.WriteLine(d2.ToString(6));
Console.WriteLine(d3.ToString(6));
Console.WriteLine(d4.ToString(6));
Console.WriteLine(d5.ToString(6));
This is the output:
0.00123
1.23456
123.456
1.23456
123456
4.20000
I don't think this is the best way to solve it, but I like extension methods.

If your goal is to avoid "jumping" of the decimal point:
Use g formating, this does the most sensible thing to do
See where the decimal point is in your resulting string
pad with spaces at the beginning to align the column at the decimal point

As I understand, there is no predefined format that does what I need. So for everyone who is interested, here is the function I ended up with:
public string FormatValue(double d, int noOfDigits)
{
double abs = Math.Abs(d);
int left = abs < 1 ? 1 : (int)(Math.Log10(abs) + 1);
int usedDigits = 0;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
for(; usedDigits < left; usedDigits++)
{
sb.Append("0");
}
if(usedDigits < noOfDigits)
{
sb.Append(".");
for(; usedDigits < noOfDigits; usedDigits++)
{
sb.Append("0");
}
}
return d.ToString(sb.ToString());
}

String/Int to double with precision defined onruntime

I have an input type integer that represents a number that needs to be converted to double between 1-100, and the rest is decimal precision.
Example: 1562 -> 15.62 ; 198912 -> 19.8912
Right now, I tried a conversion to string, count the number of characters, take 2 to check how many decimals I have and depending of the result "create" a composite string to get a valid double...
Any idea of there is a better way of resolving convert-precision on runtime.

What about this:
int value = 1562;
decimal d = value;
while (d > 100) {
d /= 10;
}

You can use LINQ Skip and Take like:
string str = "198912";
string newStr = string.Format("{0}.{1}", new string(str.Take(2).ToArray()), new string(str.Skip(2).ToArray()));
double d = double.Parse(newStr, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
You can add the checks for length on original string, and also use double.TryParse to see if you get valid values.
If you have an int to begin with then you can use decimal, which would provide you more accurate conversion. Like:
int number = 1562123123;
decimal decimalNumber = number;
while (decimalNumber > 100)
{
decimalNumber /= 10;
}

Here is a mathematical solution. The line lg = Math.Max(lg, 0); changes "2" to return "2.0" instead of "20.0" but I guess that depends on your needs for single digit numbers.
static double ToDoubleBetween1And100(int num)
{
var lg = Math.Floor(Math.Log10(num)) - 1;
lg = Math.Max(lg, 0);
return ((double)num) / Math.Pow(10, lg);
}

Get number of digits before decimal point

I have a variable of decimal type and I want to check the number of digits before decimal point in it.
What should I do? For example, 467.45 should return 3.

Solution without converting to string (which can be dangerous in case of exotic cultures):
static int GetNumberOfDigits(decimal d)
{
decimal abs = Math.Abs(d);
return abs < 1 ? 0 : (int)(Math.Log10(decimal.ToDouble(abs)) + 1);
}
Note, that this solution is valid for all decimal values
UPDATE
In fact this solution does not work with some big values, for example: 999999999999998, 999999999999999, 9999999999999939...
Obviously, the mathematical operations with double are not accurate enough for this task.
While searching wrong values I tend to use string-based alternatives proposed in this topic. As for me, that is the evidence that they are more reliable and easy-to-use (but be aware of cultures). Loop-based solutions can be faster though.
Thanks to commentators, shame on me, lesson to you.

Instead of converting to string, you can also divide the number by 10 until it equals 0. Interesting is, that the mathematical operations on decimals are much slower than converting the decimal to a string and returning the length (see benchmarks below).
This solution does not use the Math-methods that take a double as input; so all operations are done on decimals and no casting is involved.
using System;
public class Test
{
public static void Main()
{
decimal dec = -12345678912345678912345678912.456m;
int digits = GetDigits(dec);
Console.WriteLine(digits.ToString());
}
static int GetDigits(decimal dec)
{
decimal d = decimal.Floor(dec < 0 ? decimal.Negate(dec) : dec);
// As stated in the comments of the question,
// 0.xyz should return 0, therefore a special case
if (d == 0m)
return 0;
int cnt = 1;
while ((d = decimal.Floor(d / 10m)) != 0m)
cnt++;
return cnt;
}
}
Output is 29. To run this sample, visit this link.
Side note: some benchmarks show surprising results (10k runs):
while ((d = decimal.Floor(d / 10m)) != 0m): 25ms
while ((d = d / 10m) > 1m): 32ms
ToString with Math-double-operations: 3ms
ToString with decimal-operations: 3ms
BigInt (see answer of #Heinzi): 2ms
Also using random numbers instead of always the same value (to avoid possible caching of the decimal to string conversion) showed that the string-based methods are much faster.

I would try this:
Math.Truncate(467.45).ToString().Length
If you want to be sure not having some weird results for different cultures and with negative decimals, you better use this:
var myDecimal = 467.45m;
Math.Truncate(Math.Abs(myDecimal)).ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length

I would prefer the following instead of casting to int to ensure that you can also handle big numbers (e.g. decimal.MaxValue):
Math.Truncate ( Math.Abs ( decValue ) ).ToString( "####" ).Length

decimal d = 467.45M;
int i = (int)d;
Console.WriteLine(i.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length); //3
As a method;
public static int GetDigitsLength(decimal d)
{
int i = int(d);
return i.ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length;
}
Note: Of course you should check first your decimals full part is bigger than Int32.MaxValue or not. Because if it is, you get an OverflowException.
Is such a case, using long instead of int can a better approach. However even a long (System.Int64) is not big enough to hold every possible decimal value.
As Rawling mentioned, your full part can hold the thousands separator and my code will be broken in such a case. Because in this way, it totally ignores my number contains NumberFormatInfo.NumberGroupSeparator or not.
That's why getting numbers only is a better approach. Like;
i.ToString().Where(c => Char.IsDigit(c)).ToArray()

Here's a recursive example (mostly for fun).
void Main()
{
digitCount(0.123M); //0
digitCount(493854289.543354345M); //10
digitCount(4937854345454545435549.543354345M); //22
digitCount(-4937854345454545435549.543354345M); //22
digitCount(1.0M); //1
//approximately the biggest number you can pass to the function that works.
digitCount(Decimal.MaxValue + 0.4999999M); //29
}
int digitCount(decimal num, int count = 0)
{
//divided down to last digit, return how many times that happened
if(Math.Abs(num) < 1)
return count;
return digitCount(num/10, ++count); //increment the count and divide by 10 to 'remove' a digit
}

Math.Floor(Math.Log10((double)n) + 1); is the way to go.
Converting to int is BAD because decimal may be bigger than int:
Decimal.MaxValue = 79,228,162,514,264,337,593,543,950,335;
Int32.MaxValue = 2,147,483,647; //that is, hexadecimal 0x7FFFFFFF;
Math.Floor(n).ToString().Count(); is bad because it may include thousands seperators.

If you have a bias towards smaller numbers, you can use something more simple like this.
It is split up into two methods, so the first method is smaller and can be inlined.
Performance is about the same as the solution with the Log10, but without the rounding errors. The Method using Log10, is still the fastest (a bit) specially for numbers > 1 million.
public static int CountNrOfDigitsIfs(decimal d) {
var absD = Math.Abs(d);
// 1
if (absD < 10M) return 1;
// 2
if (absD < 100M) return 2;
// 3
if (absD < 1000M) return 3;
// 4

return CountNrOfDigitsIfsLarge(d);
}

// 28
if (d < 10000000000000000000000000000M) return 28;
return 29; // Max nr of digits in decimal
}
This code is generated using the following T4 template:
<#
const int SIGNIFICANT_DECIMALS = 29;
const int SPLIT = 5;
#>
namespace Study.NrOfDigits {
static partial class DigitCounter {
public static int CountNrOfDigitsIfs(decimal d) {
var absD = Math.Abs(d);
<#
for (int i = 1; i < SPLIT; i++) { // Only 29 significant digits
var zeroes = new String('0', i);
#>
// <#= i #>
if (absD < 1<#= zeroes #>M) return <#= i #>;
<#
}
#>
return CountNrOfDigitsIfsLarge(d);
}
private static int CountNrOfDigitsIfsLarge(decimal d) {
<#
for (int i = SPLIT; i < SIGNIFICANT_DECIMALS; i++) { // Only 29 significant digits
var zeroes = new String('0', i);
#>
// <#= i #>
if (d < 1<#= zeroes #>M) return <#= i #>;
<#
}
#>
return <#= SIGNIFICANT_DECIMALS #>; // Max nr of digits in decimal
}
}
}

So, I've run into this before, and solved it with this code:
SqlDecimal d = new SqlDecimal(467.45M);
int digits = d.Precision - d.Scale;
SqlDecimal is part of the System.Data.SqlTypes namespace. "Precision" is the total number of significant digits, while "Scale" is the number of digits after the decimal point.
Now, I know one objection to going this route is that SqlDecimal is part of the SQL Server-specific code. It's a valid point, but I would also point out that it's a part of the .NET framework itself, and has been since at least version 1.1, so it seems like it would be still be applicable no matter what the code around it is doing.
I looked under the hood with a decompiler (JetBrains' dotPeek in this instance), to see if maybe the code for calculating precision and scale could be easily extracted and just used, without pulling in SqlDecimal. The code to calculate scale is very simple, but the method to calculate precision is non-trivial, so if it were me, I'd just go through SqlDecimal.

This will do if you really don't want to use the Log method (which IMO is the best way). It's about the clearest way I can think of of doing this using ToString():
Math.Abs(val).ToString("f0", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length
Or alternatively, if you don't want to count 0.123M as having one digit:
Math.Abs(val).ToString("#", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length

You could use ToString function with a custom format.
Decimal value = 467.45m;
int count = Math.Abs(value).ToString("#", System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Length;
The # specify you only want the characters before the .
The System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture ensure you won't get any formating from the Region Option.

This answer is pretty much lifted from Calculate System.Decimal Precision and Scale but with a minor change to fit the question asked.
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
decimal dec = 467.45m;
Console.WriteLine(dec.GetNumberOfDigitsBeforeDecimalPlace());
}
}
public static class DecimalEx
{
public static int GetNumberOfDigitsBeforeDecimalPlace(this decimal dec)
{
var x = new System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlDecimal(dec);
return x.Precision - x.Scale;
}
}
Also if you want to do it without using the SqlDecimal class check out Jon Skeet's answer for the same question.

var sep = Convert.ToChar(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator);
var count = d.ToString().TakeWhile(c => c != sep).Count();

The mathematical way of doing this (and probably the fastest) is to get a logarytm of base 10 of a absolute value of this number and round it
up.
Math.Floor(Math.Log10(Math.Abs(val)) + 1);

TLDR all the other answers. I wrote this in PHP, and the math would be the same. (If I knew C# I'd have written in that language.)
$input=21689584.999;
$input=abs($input);
$exp=0;
do{
$test=pow(10,$exp);
if($test > $input){
$digits=$exp;
}
if($test == $input){
$digits=$exp+1;
}
$exp++;
}while(!$digits);
if($input < 1){$digits=0;}
echo $digits;
I don't doubt there's a better way, but I wanted to throw in my $.02
EDIT:
I php-ized the code I mentioned in my comments, but did away with the int conversion.
function digitCount($input){
$digits=0;
$input=abs($input);
while ($input >= 1) {
$digits++;
$input=$input/10;
//echo $input."<br>";
}
return $digits;
}
$big=(float)(PHP_INT_MAX * 1.1);
echo digitCount($big);

Use modulo, i'm not a C# programmer, but I'm pretty sure this solution work:
double i = 1;
int numberOfDecimals = 0;
while (varDouble % i != varDouble)
{
numberOfDecimals++;
i*=10;
}
return numberOfDecimals;

This would be the Java solution
public class test {
public static void main(String args[]) {
float f = 1.123f;
int a = (int) f;
int digits = 0;
while (a > 0) {
digits++;
a=a/10;
}
System.out.println("No Of digits before decimal="+digits);
}
}

If you treat zeros or lack of zeroes as 1 number, this is OK. If you want zero to return zero or lack of zero to return zero, then there are a few edge cases to work out which shouldn't be too hard to add. Also, should Absolute value to handle negative numbers. Added that test case as well.
const decimal d = 123.45m;
const decimal d1 = 0.123m;
const decimal d2 = .567m;
const decimal d3 = .333m;
const decimal d4 = -123.45m;
NumberFormatInfo currentProvider = NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo;
var newProvider = (NumberFormatInfo) currentProvider.Clone();
newProvider.NumberDecimalDigits = 0;
string number = d.ToString("N", newProvider); //returns 123 = .Length = 3
string number1 = d1.ToString("N", newProvider); //returns 0 = .Length = 1
string number2 = d2.ToString("N", newProvider); //returns 1 = .Length = 1
string number3 = d3.ToString("N", newProvider); //returns 0 = .Length = 1
string number4 = Math.Abs(d4).ToString("N", newProvider); //returns 123 = .Length = 3
Here's a somewhat final solution, if you find a test case that doesn't work, let me know. It should return 3,0,0,0,3 for the test cases provided.
public static int NumbersInFrontOfDecimal(decimal input)
{
NumberFormatInfo currentProvider = NumberFormatInfo.InvariantInfo;
var newProvider = (NumberFormatInfo)currentProvider.Clone();
newProvider.NumberDecimalDigits = 0;
var absInput = Math.Abs(input);
var numbers = absInput.ToString("N", newProvider);
//Handle Zero and < 1
if (numbers.Length == 1 && input < 1.0m)
{
return 0;
}
return numbers.Length;
}

Here is my optimized version of the code inspired by Gray's answer:
static int GetNumOfDigits(decimal dTest)
{
int nAnswer = 0;
dTest = Math.Abs(dTest);
//For loop version
for (nAnswer = 0; nAnswer < 29 && dTest > 1; ++nAnswer)
{
dTest *= 0.1M;
}
//While loop version
//while (dTest > 1)
//{
// nAnswer++;
// dTest *= 0.1M;
//}
return (nAnswer);
}
If you don't want the Math.Abs to be called inside this function then be sure to use it
outside the function on the parameter before calling GetNumOfDigits.
I decided to remove the other codes to reduce clutter in my answer, even though they helped me get to this point...
If there is any improvements needed, then let me know and I will update it :).

In order to get an accurate and culturally agnostic answer I do the following:
Use System.Numerics.BigInteger, whose constructor accepts a decimal and doesn't seem to produce any rounding errors.
Use BigInteger.Abs() to remove any sign.
Use BigInteger.ToString() with the "#" format to suppress any separators that might occur.
Code
decimal num = 123213123.123123M;
int length = BigInteger.Abs((BigInteger)num).ToString("#").Length;

You could do this by rounding the number, then getting the length of the new number. You could do it like this:
var number = 476.43;
var newNumber = Math.round(number);
//get the length of the rounded number, and subtract 1 if the
//number is negative (remove the negative sign from the count)
int digits = newNumber.ToString().Length - (number < 0 ? 1 : 0);

The other solutions will lose digits if the number is too large.
public int Digits(Decimal i)
{
NumberFormatInfo format = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.NumberFormat;
var str = Math.Abs(i).ToString().Replace(format.NumberGroupSeparator, "");
var index = str.IndexOf(format.NumberDecimalSeparator);
var digits = index == -1 ? str.Length : index;
}

Algorithm:
Convert |decimal| to String.
If "." exist in the decimal, cut before it, otherwise consider the whole number.
Return string length.
Example:
3.14 --> 3.14 --> "3.14" --> "3.14".Substring(0,1) --> "3".Length --> 1
-1024 --> 1024 --> "1024" --> IndexOf(".") = -1 --> "1024" --> 4
Code:
static int getNumOfDigits (decimal num)
{
string d = Math.Abs(num).ToString();
if (d.IndexOf(".") > -1)
{
d = d.Substring(0, d.IndexOf("."));
}
return d.Length;
}

I haven't tested this but I would keep it straightforward and do:
decimal value = 467.45;
string str = Convert.toString(value); // convert your decimal type to a string
string[] splitStr = str.split('.'); // split it into an array (use comma separator assuming you know your cultural context)
Console.WriteLine(splitStr[0].Count); // get the first element. You can also get the number of figures after the point by indexing the next value in the array.
This does not handle negative numbers. If you care about those then considering taking the absolute value. Furthermore, if you want 0 before the decimal place to not be counted then you can use a simple if statement to check it.

simple :
string value = "467.45";
int count = value.split('.')[0] == "0" ? 0 : value.split('.')[0].ToString().Replace("-","").Count();

Truncating a number to specified decimal places

I need to truncate a number to 2 decimal places, which basically means
chopping off the extra digits.
Eg:
2.919 -> 2.91
2.91111 -> 2.91
Why? This is what SQL server is doing when storing a number of a
particular precision. Eg, if a column is Decimal(8,2), and you try to
insert/update a number of 9.1234, the 3 and 4 will be chopped off.
I need to do exactly the same thing in c# code.
The only possible ways that I can think of doing it are either:
Using the stringformatter to "print" it out only
two decimal places, and then converting it to a decimal,
eg:
decimal tooManyDigits = 2.1345
decimal ShorterDigits = Convert.ToDecimal(tooManyDigits.ToString("0.##"));
// ShorterDigits is now 2.13
I'm not happy with this because it involves a to-string and then
another string to decimal conversion which seems a bit mad.
Using Math.Truncate (which only accepts an integer), so I
can multiply it by 100, truncate it, then divide by 100. eg:
decimal tooLongDecimal = 2.1235;
tooLongDecimal = Math.Truncate(tooLongDecimal * 100) / 100;
I'm also not happy with this because if tooLongDecimal is 0,
I'll get a divide by 0 error.
Surely there's a better + easier way! Any suggestions?

You've answered the question yourself; it seems you just misunderstood what division by zero means. The correct way to do this is to multiply, truncate, then devide, like this:
decimal TruncateTo100ths(decimal d)
{
return Math.Truncate(d* 100) / 100;
}
TruncateTo100ths(0m); // 0
TruncateTo100ths(2.919m); // 2.91
TruncateTo100ths(2.91111m); // 2.91
TruncateTo100ths(2.1345m); // 2.13
There is no division by zero here, there is only division by 100, which is perfectly safe.

The previously offered mathematical solutions are vulnerable to overflow with large numbers and/or a large number of decimal places. Consider instead the following extension method:
public static decimal TruncateDecimal(this decimal d, int decimals)
{
if (decimals < 0)
throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("decimals", "Value must be in range 0-28.");
else if (decimals > 28)
throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("decimals", "Value must be in range 0-28.");
else if (decimals == 0)
return Math.Truncate(d);
else
{
decimal integerPart = Math.Truncate(d);
decimal scalingFactor = d - integerPart;
decimal multiplier = (decimal) Math.Pow(10, decimals);
scalingFactor = Math.Truncate(scalingFactor * multiplier) / multiplier;
return integerPart + scalingFactor;
}
}
Usage:
decimal value = 18446744073709551615.262626263m;
value = value.TruncateDecimal(6); // Result: 18446744073709551615.262626

I agree with p.s.w.g. I had the similar requirement and here is my experience and a more generalized function for truncating.
http://snathani.blogspot.com/2014/05/truncating-number-to-specificnumber-of.html
public static decimal Truncate(decimal value, int decimals)
{
decimal factor = (decimal)Math.Pow(10, decimals);
decimal result = Math.Truncate(factor * value) / factor;
return result;
}

Using decimal.ToString('0.##') also imposes rounding:
1.119M.ToString("0.##") // -> 1.12
(Yeah, likely should be a comment, but it's hard to format well as such.)

public static decimal Rounding(decimal val, int precision)
{
decimal res = Trancating(val, precision + 1);
return Math.Round(res, precision, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero);
}
public static decimal Trancating(decimal val,int precision)
{
if (val.ToString().Contains("."))
{
string valstr = val.ToString();
string[] valArr = valstr.Split('.');
if(valArr[1].Length < precision)
{
int NoOfZeroNeedToAdd = precision - valArr[1].Length;
for (int i = 1; i <= NoOfZeroNeedToAdd; i++)
{
valstr = string.Concat(valstr, "0");
}
}
if(valArr[1].Length > precision)
{
valstr = valArr[0] +"."+ valArr[1].Substring(0, precision);
}
return Convert.ToDecimal(valstr);
}
else
{
string valstr=val.ToString();
for(int i = 0; i <= precision; i++)
{
if (i == 1)
valstr = string.Concat(valstr, ".0");
if(i>1)
valstr = string.Concat(valstr, "0");
}
return Convert.ToDecimal(valstr);
}
}

Split double into two int, one int before decimal point and one after

I need to split an double value, into two int value, one before the decimal point and one after. The int after the decimal point should have two digits.
Example:
10.50 = 10 and 50
10.45 = 10 and 45
10.5 = 10 and 50

This is how you could do it:
string s = inputValue.ToString("0.00", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string[] parts = s.Split('.');
int i1 = int.Parse(parts[0]);
int i2 = int.Parse(parts[1]);

Manipulating strings can be slow. Try using the following:
double number;
long intPart = (long) number;
double fractionalPart = number - intPart;

What programming language you want to use to do this? Most of the language should have a Modulo operator. C++ example:
double num = 10.5;
int remainder = num % 1

"10.50".Split('.').Select(int.Parse);

/// <summary>
/// Get the integral and floating point portions of a Double
/// as separate integer values, where the floating point value is
/// raised to the specified power of ten, given by 'places'.
/// </summary>
public static void Split(Double value, Int32 places, out Int32 left, out Int32 right)
{
left = (Int32)Math.Truncate(value);
right = (Int32)((value - left) * Math.Pow(10, places));
}
public static void Split(Double value, out Int32 left, out Int32 right)
{
Split(value, 1, out left, out right);
}
Usage:
Int32 left, right;
Split(10.50, out left, out right);
// left == 10
// right == 5
Split(10.50, 2, out left, out right);
// left == 10
// right == 50
Split(10.50, 5, out left, out right);
// left == 10
// right == 50000

how about?
var n = 1004.522
var a = Math.Floor(n);
var b = n - a;

Another variation that doesn't involve string manipulation:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
decimal number = 10123.51m;
int whole = (int)number;
decimal precision = (number - whole) * 100;
Console.WriteLine(number);
Console.WriteLine(whole);
Console.WriteLine("{0} and {1}",whole,(int) precision);
Console.Read();
}
Make sure they're decimals or you get the usual strange float/double behaviour.

you can split with string and then convert into int ...
string s = input.ToString();
string[] parts = s.Split('.');

This function will take time in decimal and converts back into base 60 .
public string Time_In_Absolute(double time)
{
time = Math.Round(time, 2);
string[] timeparts = time.ToString().Split('.');
timeparts[1] = "." + timeparts[1];
double Minutes = double.Parse(timeparts[1]);
Minutes = Math.Round(Minutes, 2);
Minutes = Minutes * (double)60;
return string.Format("{0:00}:{1:00}",timeparts[0],Minutes);
//return Hours.ToString() + ":" + Math.Round(Minutes,0).ToString();
}

Try:
string s = "10.5";
string[] s1 = s.Split(new char[] { "." });
string first = s1[0];
string second = s1[1];

You can do it without going through strings. Example:
foreach (double x in new double[]{10.45, 10.50, 10.999, -10.323, -10.326, 10}){
int i = (int)Math.Truncate(x);
int f = (int)Math.Round(100*Math.Abs(x-i));
if (f==100){ f=0; i+=(x<0)?-1:1; }
Console.WriteLine("("+i+", "+f+")");
}
Output:
(10, 45)
(10, 50)
(11, 0)
(-10, 32)
(-10, 33)
(10, 0)
Won't work for a number like -0.123, though. Then again, I'm not sure how it would fit your representation.

I actually just had to answer this in the real world and while #David Samuel's answer did part of it here is the resulting code I used. As said before Strings are way too much overhead. I had to do this calculation across pixel values in a video and was still able to maintain 30fps on a moderate computer.
double number = 4140 / 640; //result is 6.46875 for example
int intPart = (int)number; //just convert to int, loose the dec.
int fractionalPart = (int)((position - intPart) * 1000); //rounding was not needed.
//this procedure will create two variables used to extract [iii*].[iii]* from iii*.iii*
This was used to solve x,y from pixel count in 640 X 480 video feed.

Console.Write("Enter the amount of money: ");
double value = double.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
int wholeDigits = (int) value;
double fractionalDigits = (value - wholeDigits) * 100;
fractionalDigits = (int) fractionalDigits;
Console.WriteLine(
"The number of the shekels is {0}, and the number of the agurot is {1}",
wholeDigits, fractionalDigits);

Using Linq. Just clarification of #Denis answer.
var parts = "10.50".Split('.').Select(int.Parse);
int i1 = parts.ElementAt(0);
int i2 = parts.ElementAt(1);
