Converts the numeric value of this instance to its equivalent string representation.

public:
 override System::String ^ ToString();

public override string ToString ();

override this.ToString : unit -> string

Public Overrides Function ToString () As String

Returns

String

The string representation of the value of this instance, consisting of a minus sign if the value is negative, and a sequence of digits ranging from 0 to 9 with no leading zeroes.

Examples

The following example uses the ToString() method to display an array of Int16 values to the console.

short[] numbers = {0, 14624, 13982, short.MaxValue,
                   short.MinValue, -16667};
foreach (short number in numbers)
{
   Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());
}
// The example displays the following output to the console:
//       0
//       14624
//       13982
//       32767
//       -32768
//       -16667

let numbers = [ 0s; 14624s; 13982s; Int16.MaxValue; Int16.MinValue; -16667s ]

for number in numbers do
    printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

// The example displays the following output to the console:
//       0
//       14624
//       13982
//       32767
//       -32768
//       -16667

Dim numbers() As Short = {0, 14624, 13982, Short.MaxValue, _
                         Short.MinValue, -16667}
For Each number As Short In numbers
   Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())
Next        
' The example displays the following output to the console:
'       0
'       14624
'       13982
'       32767
'       -32768
'       -16667

Remarks

The ToString() method formats an Int16 value in the default ("G", or general) format by using the NumberFormatInfo object of the current culture. If you want to specify a different format or culture, use the other overloads of the ToString method, as follows:

To use format	For culture	Use the overload
Default ("G") format	A specific culture	ToString(IFormatProvider)
A specific format	Default (current) culture	ToString(String)
A specific format	A specific culture	ToString(String, IFormatProvider)

.NET provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics:

Public Function ToString (provider As IFormatProvider) As String

Parameters

provider: IFormatProvider

An IFormatProvider that supplies culture-specific formatting information.

Returns

String

The string representation of the value of this instance as specified by provider.

Implements

ToString(IFormatProvider)

Examples

The following example iterates an array of Int16 values and displays each of them to the console by calling the Int16.ToString(IFormatProvider) method with different format providers. Because of the simple formatting defined by the default "G" format specifier, the formatted strings produced for each Int16 value are identical regardless of the value of the provider parameter.

Remarks

The ToString(IFormatProvider) method formats an Int16 value in the default ("G", or general) format by using the NumberFormatInfo object of a specified culture. If you want to specify a different format or the current culture, use the other overloads of the ToString method, as follows:

To use format	For culture	Use the overload
Default ("G") format	Default (current) culture	ToString()
A specific format	Default (current) culture	ToString(String)
A specific format	A specific culture	ToString(String, IFormatProvider)

.NET provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics:

For more information about numeric format specifiers, see Standard Numeric Format Strings and Custom Numeric Format Strings.
For more information about formatting, see Formatting Types.

The provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation whose IFormatProvider.GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object. Typically, provider is a NumberFormatInfo object or a CultureInfo object. The NumberFormatInfo object provides culture-specific information about the format of the string returned by this method. If provider is null, this instance is formatted with the NumberFormatInfo object for the current culture.

Remarks

The ToString(String) method formats an Int16 value in a specified format by using a NumberFormatInfo object that represents the conventions of the current culture. If you want to use the default ("G", or general) format or specify a different culture, use the other overloads of the ToString method, as follows:

To use format	For culture	Use the overload
Default ("G") format	Default (current) culture	ToString()
Default ("G") format	A specific culture	ToString(IFormatProvider)
A specific format	A specific culture	ToString(String, IFormatProvider)

The format parameter can be either a standard or a custom numeric format string. All standard numeric format strings other than "R" (or "r") are supported, as are all custom numeric format characters. If format is null or an empty string, the return value of this instance is formatted with the general numeric format specifier ("G").

.NET provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics:

For more information about numeric format specifiers, see Standard Numeric Format Strings and Custom Numeric Format Strings.
For more information about formatting, see Formatting Types.

The return value of this instance is formatted with the NumberFormatInfo for the current culture.

Remarks

The ToString(String, IFormatProvider) method formats an Int16 value in a specified format by using the NumberFormatInfo object of a specified culture. If you want to use default format or culture settings, use the other overloads of the ToString method, as follows:

To use format	For culture	Use the overload
Default ("G") format	Default (current) culture	ToString()
Default ("G") format	A specific culture	ToString(IFormatProvider)
A specific format	Default (current) culture	ToString(String)

The format parameter can be either a standard or a custom numeric format string. All standard numeric format strings other than "R" (or "r") are supported, as are all custom numeric format characters. If format is null or an empty string (""), the string returned by this method is formatted with the general numeric format specifier ("G").

.NET provides extensive formatting support, which is described in greater detail in the following formatting topics:

For more information about numeric format specifiers, see Standard Numeric Format Strings and Custom Numeric Format Strings.
For more information about formatting, see Formatting Types.

The provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation. Its GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object that provides culture-specific information about the format of the string that is returned by this method. The object that implements IFormatProvider can be any of the following:

A CultureInfo object that represents the culture whose formatting rules are to be used.
A NumberFormatInfo object that contains specific numeric formatting information for this value.
A custom object that implements IFormatProvider.

If provider is null, or a NumberFormatInfo object cannot be obtained from provider, the return value is formatted with the NumberFormatInfo for the current culture.
