How to convert a double 2.0 to string "2.0"

Hi, guys,

If I simply do a double d = 2.0 ,and then s=d.ToString() , it will trim
the .0 off and return me 2, is there a good way to keep .0 and return me
2.0.

Thanks,

Use the formatting optin in the ToString() method:

double d1 = 2.0;
double d2 = 2.01;

Trace.WriteLine ( d1.ToString("#, ###.0") );
Trace.WriteLine ( d1.ToString("#, ###.00") );
Trace.WriteLine ( d2.ToString("#, ###.0") );
Trace.WriteLine ( d2.ToString("#, ###.00") );
Trace.WriteLine ( d2.ToString("#, ###.000") );

The ToString method is overloaded and accepts parameters to specify the
format. For example ToString("#.0")

See the docs.

Hi everyone, A basic one here, I think. I haven't found the pattern yet, but sometimes when I cast a variable to another type using the "C" style cast operator the compiler refuses to play along. It says it's an invalid cast. However, if I use the Convert.ToInt32() method (for example) things will work. At least, that's how it appears to me. Could someone explain when to use old-style parenthesized casts vs. the Convert() methods?

In my code i use the text from a textbox and convert it to a double value. I was using Convert.ToDouble() but i'm used to convert comma to dot. This way i can assure the text is correct. However it seems this convert is determined by the local settings and comma is indeed used as decimal separator. Is there another way to convert a dotted value to a double variable? Like 1234.5 and not 1234,5

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
