Remarks

The TryParse method is like the Parse method, except that it does not throw an exception if the conversion fails. This method eliminates the need to use exception handling to test for a FormatException if s is invalid and cannot be successfully parsed.

The s parameter should be the string representation of a decimal number in the following form:

[ws][sign]digits[ws]

Elements in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. The following table describes each element.

Element Description
ws Optional white space.
sign An optional sign. Valid sign characters are determined by the NumberFormatInfo.NegativeSign and NumberFormatInfo.PositiveSign properties of the current culture.
digits A sequence of decimal digits ranging from 0 to 9.

The s parameter is interpreted by using the NumberStyles.Integer style. In addition to the decimal digits, only leading and trailing spaces with a leading sign are allowed. To explicitly define the style elements with the culture-specific formatting information that can be present in s, call the TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, UInt32) method.

Note

The string specified by the s parameter cannot contain any group separators or decimal separator, and it cannot have a fractional portion.

The s parameter is parsed by using the formatting information in a NumberFormatInfo object for the current system culture. For more information, see NumberFormatInfo.CurrentInfo.

This overload interprets all digits in the s parameter as decimal digits. To parse the string representation of a hexadecimal number, call the TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, UInt32) overload instead.

Remarks

The TryParse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider, UInt32) method is like the Parse(String, NumberStyles, IFormatProvider) method, except that it does not throw an exception if the conversion fails. This method eliminates the need to use exception handling to test for a FormatException if s is invalid and cannot be parsed successfully.

The style parameter defines the style elements (such as white space or a positive or negative sign) that are allowed in the s parameter for the parse operation to succeed. It must be a combination of bit flags from the NumberStyles enumeration. Depending on the value of style, the s parameter may include the following elements:

[ws][$][sign][digits,]digits[.fractional_digits][E[sign]exponential_digits][ws]

Items in square brackets ([ and ]) are optional. Or, if the style parameter includes NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier, the s parameter may include the following elements:

[ws]hexdigits[ws]

The following table describes each element.

Element Description
ws Optional white space. White space can appear at the start of s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite flag, or at the end of s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite flag.
$ A culture-specific currency symbol. Its position in the string is defined by the CurrencyPositivePattern property of the NumberFormatInfo object returned by the GetFormat method of the provider parameter. The currency symbol can appear in s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowCurrencySymbol flag.
sign An optional sign. The sign can appear at the start of s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowLeadingSign flag, and it can appear at the end of s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowTrailingSign flag. Parentheses can be used in s to indicate a negative value if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowParentheses flag. However, if the negative sign is present, s can only represent the value zero for the parse operation to succeed.
digits A sequence of digits from 0 through 9.
, A culture-specific group separator. The group separator of the culture specified by provider can appear in s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowThousands flag.
. A culture-specific decimal point symbol. The decimal point symbol of the culture specified by provider can appear in s if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
fractional_digits One or more occurrences of the digit 0. Fractional digits can appear in s only if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowDecimalPoint flag.
E The "e" or "E" character, which indicates that the value is represented in exponential (scientific) notation. The s parameter can represent a number in exponential notation if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowExponent flag.
exponential_digits A sequence of digits from 0 through 9. The s parameter can represent a number in exponential notation if style includes the NumberStyles.AllowExponent flag.
hexdigits A sequence of hexadecimal digits from 0 through f, or 0 through F.

Note

Any terminating NUL (U+0000) characters in s are ignored by the parsing operation, regardless of the value of the style argument.

A string with decimal digits only (which corresponds to the NumberStyles.None flag) always parses successfully. Most of the remaining NumberStyles members control elements that may be present, but are not required to be present, in this input string. The following table indicates how individual NumberStyles members affect the elements that may be present in s.

Non-composite NumberStyles values Elements permitted in value in addition to digits
None Decimal digits only.
AllowDecimalPoint The decimal point (.) and fractional_digits elements. However, fractional_digits must consist of only one or more 0 digits, or the method returns false.
AllowExponent The "e" or "E" character, which indicates exponential notation, along with exponential_digits. If s represents a number in exponential notation, it cannot have a non-zero, fractional component.
AllowLeadingWhite The ws element at the start of s.
AllowTrailingWhite The ws element at the end of s.
AllowLeadingSign The sign element before digits.
AllowTrailingSign The sign element after digits.
AllowParentheses The sign element in the form of parentheses enclosing a zero numeric value.
AllowThousands The group separator (,) element.
AllowCurrencySymbol The currency ($) element.
Currency All elements. However, s cannot represent a hexadecimal number or a number in exponential notation.
Float The ws element at the start or end of s, sign at the start of s, and the decimal point (.) symbol. The s parameter can also use exponential notation.
Number The ws, sign, group separator (,), and decimal point (.) elements.
Any All elements. However, s cannot represent a hexadecimal number.

If the NumberStyles.AllowHexSpecifier flag is used, s must be a hexadecimal value. The only other flags that can be present in style are NumberStyles.AllowLeadingWhite and NumberStyles.AllowTrailingWhite. (The NumberStyles enumeration has a composite style, HexNumber, that includes both white-space flags.)

Note

If s is the string representation of a hexadecimal number, it cannot be preceded by any decoration (such as 0x or &h) that differentiates it as a hexadecimal number. This causes the conversion to fail.

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

If provider is null, the NumberFormatInfo object for the current culture is used.
