Convert decimal value to exponential value

70 New Member
Hi, I have a decimal number. I need to convert this decimal value to exponential value. I have a vb.net code to convert from decimal to exponential value is Format(100000, #.0#E-##) . When I run this code in vb.net it returns 1.0E5

I need the same expression for the c#.
I am using the following code String.Format(" {0:E}", 100000) and its returns 1.000000E+005, but I need 1.0E5. The same for the another value String.Format(" {0:E}", 0.000597), I need 5.97E-4 but it is returning 5.970000E-004. Does anyone let me know the right expression

Hi, How to convert "1283912839E-5" string (in scientific format) to a decimal. Convert.ToDecimal("1283912839E-5") is throwing "Input string is not in correct format" exception. Is the exponential format not supported during conversion? I think we need to use NumberFormatInfo, but dont know how to use the format specifiers in the NumberFormatInfo.

Hi all, I have to read from a text file and generate values and insert to database. But first of all, when the text file contains '0000000000', I received a sEfundAmt value = 0D instead of 0.0 on sEfundAmt = Decimal.Parse(Mid$(sRetLine, 30, 10)) / 100.0 For example, in the text file, value is '0000150776', I want to

The largest integer A97 can deal with is 2,147,483,647, as I understand it from HELP. I would be content to represent larger integers as strings. For example, "2147483648" would suit me fine. I would be interested in converting larger HEX numbers to decimal integer equivalents. For example, a 16-digit HEX number is quite a large decimal value and I would be happy to represent it as a string, as it would suit my purposes fine. Since the...

Is there a way to convert an exponential number (held in string format) to non-exponential format without losing any precision in the number? For example, I have a string variable containing "7.7583877127496407E-6" and I want to convert it to a string in decimal format. It seems that converting it using a double or decimal variable as an intermediate step to do the reformatting only preserves 15 significant digits. Thanks.

Hi I'm running into a scenario with a DataSet that has a schema loaded into it, tries to then load data (that matches the schema), and fails with a "Input string was not in a correct format" exception because the decimal field in one of the incoming fields is written in exponential form. I've looked at generating the XML with a fully written decimal value (as opposed to using exponential notation) but that's an issue because right now the...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
