Formatting Numbers

[Plunaldo]

I have some questions about Numberformatting
What is the best way to format a number that will be shown to a user? is it

CultureInfo cultureInfo = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture
int.Parse(summaryObjectArray[0].ToString()).ToString("N",cultureInfo)
how can i assign less/more decimal digits to a number

i have 1'000'000.00 //standard format i think..

I want 1'000'000 //would be nice for an int that is getting converted..

thanks for your hel

Hi, Plunaldo,

Have a look at the whole section:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...matstrings.asp

For your example:

int a = 1000000;
Response.Write(a.ToString("N0"));

should produce:

1'000'000

if the thousands separator for the current culture is '

Hope this helps
