Mar 13, 2009Problem: Using the sub routing below, when adding a value to another value the results eventually change from 2-decimal places to multiple decimal places.Basically, the amount stored should always only be 2 decimal places, because the values passed in are always 2 decimal places.

View 5 RepliesFormat String To Pass To String.Format That Would "move" The Decimal Point?
Aug 26, 2010So I need a format string to pass to String.Format that would "move" the decimal point.I can't perform any math operations before doing the String.Format, so it has to work right off the bat.Basically I'm emulating a formatting string from a proprietary server. In it if I say:
"MR2"
for the value:
12345
The result is:
123.45
I'm close with this, but it's not spot on:
String.Format("{0:#0.##}", 12345)
an extra, but not necessary... there is also MR2Z, which moves the decimal 2 left, but if the value is 0 "" is returned.
Asp.net - Decimal.parse Fails For Currency String Created With String.Format?
Apr 5, 2011I have a field that I display via: String.Format({0:c},amount) This produces the string "$28.28" However, when I try to convert back to a decimal amount, I get an incorrect format exception: amount = Decimal.Parse(amount.Text, NumberStyles.Currency) I also tried it with NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol with the same results. I verified that the value in amount.Text is "$28.28". Am I missing something? Shouldn't these two operations use the same currency symbol and formats?

DateTime Binary Coded Decimal Byte() Equivalent Of String Format?
Sep 30, 2010I realize the code listed below, whose serial port using string formatting which I inherited is complicated. It formats a Date obtained from a DatePicker control into a "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" string format to send to a hardware device to be stored via Serial Port retrieves the date from the device and displays to user What I'm trying to do is port the code for use in a Socket rather than Serial Port which wants a Byte Arrray of the same Date Time string variable. I can't figure out how to encode and convert to Bytes the string value used in the Serial Port version. The evolution of the process is listed from top to bottom.

How To Mix Decimal Places
Feb 22, 2012Using Visual Studio I'm using TextRange processing a word at a time, parsing for figures and minus values etc. All of which works. However I have to honour the original number of decimal places in the figures, even though they may be 0's.ie -1219.0 and 1219.00 are both valid inputs the valid outputs would be(1,219.0) and 1,219.00, I can't just use tostring and stamp all of them as "N2" etc).I have to format including retaining the trailing 0 if necessary.I can use "#,##0.######" but that removes trailing 0's... ie both above example would be changed to 1,219 pos or neg.

Estimating π To >14 Decimal Places?
Oct 30, 2010My computing teacher challenged me to write a console program in Visual Basic.NET which would calculate π, AKA Pi, to 14 decimal places. I contemplated various algorithms, then settled for a variant of Leibniz's series which would converge rapidly whilst being simple to implement.After about 30 minutes or so of programming I had finished my program which could generate the first 14 decimal places of π in a mere 27 iterations, below is the source code:
[Code]...
However, to my dismay, I soon discovered that this was all my program was capable of because of the IEEE specifications for numbers, although I've heard of people generating π to thousands of decimal places using unmodified Personal Computers so if you could tell me how I should modify my code to work around this to generate say 500 more decimal places.

Formatting Decimal Places?
Feb 27, 2011I have designed a unit converter that converts between different units. The value and unit to be converted from are entered in the first text box, for example "1 km" and the unit to be converted to is entered in the second text box. Then after pressing the calculate button, the new value will be displayed in the second text box as the output. By default the output will be specified to two decimal places. However, if the input has any number of decimal places, for example "1.045 km" the output should be displayed to the same decimal place, in this case 3.Displaying the output to two decimal places was easy enough to figure out, I just used:
FormatNumber(finalValue, 2)
But I'm completely stuck on the other part however and I'm wondering if anyone here has any suggestions. I thought about doing something like this:
