Examples

The following example uses the default Single.ToString method to display the string representations of a number of Single values.

float number;

number = 1.6E20F;
// Displays 1.6E+20.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = 1.6E2F;
// Displays 160.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = -3.541F;
// Displays -3.541.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = -1502345222199E-07F;
// Displays -150234.5222199.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = -15023452221990199574E-09F;
// Displays -15023452221.9902.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = .60344F;
// Displays 0.60344.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

number = .000000001F;
// Displays 1E-09.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString());

let number = 1.6E20F
// Displays 1.6E+20.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = 1.6E2F
// Displays 160.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = -3.541F
// Displays -3.541.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = -1502345222199E-07F
// Displays -150234.5222199.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = -15023452221990199574E-09F
// Displays -15023452221.9902.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = 0.60344F
// Displays 0.60344.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

let number = 0.000000001F
// Displays 1E-09.
printfn $"{number.ToString()}"

Dim number As Single

number = 1.6E20
' Displays 1.6E+20.      
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = 1.6E2
' Displays 160.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = -3.541
' Displays -3.541.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = -1502345222199E-07
' Displays -150234.5222199.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = -15023452221990199574E-09
' Displays -15023452221.9902.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = .60344
' Displays 0.60344.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

number = .000000001
' Displays 1E-09.
Console.WriteLine(number.ToString())

The following code example illustrates the use of the Parse(String) method along with the ToString() method.

bool done = false;
String^ inp;
do
{
   Console::Write( "Enter a real number: " );
   inp = Console::ReadLine();
   try
   {
      s = Single::Parse( inp );
      Console::WriteLine( "You entered {0}.", s );
      done = true;
   }
   catch ( FormatException^ ) 
   {
      Console::WriteLine( "You did not enter a number." );
   }
   catch ( Exception^ e ) 
   {
      Console::WriteLine( "An exception occurred while parsing your response: {0}", e );
   }
}
while (  !done );

bool done = false;
string inp;
do
{
    Console.Write("Enter a real number: ");
    inp = Console.ReadLine();
    try
    {
        s = Single.Parse(inp);
        Console.WriteLine("You entered {0}.", s.ToString());
        done = true;
    }
    catch (FormatException)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("You did not enter a number.");
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred while parsing your response: {0}", e.ToString());
    }
} while (!done);

let mutable finished = false
while not finished do
    printf "Enter a real number: "
    let inp = stdin.ReadLine()
    try
        let s = Single.Parse inp
        printfn $"You entered {s}."
        finished <- true
    with 
    | :? FormatException ->
        printfn "You did not enter a number."
    | e ->
        printfn "An exception occurred while parsing your response: {e}"

Dim Done As Boolean = False
Dim Inp As String
Do

    Console.Write("Enter a real number: ")
    Inp = Console.ReadLine()
    Try
        S = Single.Parse(Inp)
        Console.WriteLine("You entered " + S.ToString() + ".")
        Done = True
    Catch E As FormatException
        Console.WriteLine("You did not enter a number.")
    Catch E As Exception
        Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred while parsing your response: " + E.ToString())
    End Try
Loop While Not Done

Remarks

The ToString() method formats a Single value in the default ("G", or general) format 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)

The return value can be PositiveInfinitySymbol, NegativeInfinitySymbol, NaNSymbol, or a string of the form:

[sign]integral-digits[.[fractional-digits]][e[sign]exponential-digits]

Optional elements are framed in square brackets ([ and ]). Elements that contain the term "digits" consist of a series of numeric characters ranging from 0 to 9. The following table lists each element:

Element	Description
sign	A negative sign or positive sign symbol.
integral-digits	A series of digits specifying the integral part of the number. Integral-digits can be absent if there are fractional-digits.
'.'	A culture-specific decimal point symbol.
fractional-digits	A series of digits specifying the fractional part of the number.
'e'	A lowercase character 'e', indicating exponential (scientific) notation.
exponential-digits	A series of digits specifying an exponent.

Some examples of the return value are "100", "-123,456,789", "123.45e+6", "500", "3.1416", "600", "-0.123", and "-Infinity".

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

Remarks

The ToString(IFormatProvider) method formats a Single value in the default ("G", or general) format 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)

The return value can be PositiveInfinitySymbol, NegativeInfinitySymbol, NaNSymbol, or a string of the form:

[sign]integral-digits[.[fractional-digits]][e[sign]exponential-digits]

Optional elements are framed in square brackets ([ and ]). Elements containing the term "digits" consist of a series of numeric characters ranging from 0 to 9. The following table lists each element.

Element	Description
sign	A negative sign or positive sign symbol.
integral-digits	A series of digits specifying the integral part of the number. Integral-digits can be absent if there are fractional-digits.
'.'	A culture-specific decimal point symbol.
fractional-digits	A series of digits specifying the fractional part of the number.
'e'	A lowercase character 'e', indicating exponential (scientific) notation.
exponential-digits	A series of digits specifying an exponent.

Some examples of the return value are "100", "-123,456,789", "123.45e+6", "500", "3.1416", "600", "-0.123", and "-Infinity".

.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 GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object. Typically, provider is a CultureInfo object or a NumberFormatInfo object. The provider parameter supplies culture-specific information used in formatting. If provider is null, the return value is formatted using the NumberFormatInfo data for the current culture.

To convert a Single value to its string representation using a specified culture and a specific format string, call the Single.ToString(String, IFormatProvider) method.

Applies to

The following example displays several Single values using each of the supported standard numeric format specifiers together with two custom numeric format strings. One of those custom format strings illustrates how to pad a Single value with leading zeros. In converting the numeric values to strings, the example uses the formatting conventions of the en-US culture.

Remarks

The ToString(String) method formats a Single value in a specified format by using 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 return value can be PositiveInfinitySymbol, NegativeInfinitySymbol, NaNSymbol, or the string representation of the value of the current instance, as specified by format.

The format parameter can be any valid standard numeric format specifier except for D and X, as well as any combination of custom numeric format specifiers. If format is null or an empty string, the return value 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.

By default, the return value only contains 7 digits of precision although a maximum of 9 digits is maintained internally. If the value of this instance has greater than 7 digits, ToString(String) returns PositiveInfinitySymbol or NegativeInfinitySymbol instead of the expected number. If you require more precision, specify format with the "G9" format specification, which always returns 9 digits of precision, or "R", which returns 7 digits if the number can be represented with that precision or 9 digits if the number can only be represented with maximum precision.

Remarks

The ToString(String, IFormatProvider) method formats a Single value in a specified format 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 return value can be PositiveInfinitySymbol, NegativeInfinitySymbol, NaNSymbol, or the string representation of the value of the current instance, as specified by format.

The format parameter can be any valid standard numeric format specifier except for D and X, as well as any combination of custom numeric format specifiers. If format is null or an empty string, the return value for 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 provider parameter is an IFormatProvider implementation whose GetFormat method returns a NumberFormatInfo object. Typically, provider is a CultureInfo object or a NumberFormatInfo object. The provider parameter supplies culture-specific information used in formatting. If provider is null, the return value is formatted with the NumberFormatInfo object for the current culture.

By default, the return value only contains 7 digits of precision although a maximum of 9 digits is maintained internally. If the value of this instance has greater than 7 digits, ToString returns PositiveInfinitySymbol or NegativeInfinitySymbol instead of the expected number. If you require more precision, specify format with the "G9" format specification, which always returns 9 digits of precision, or "R", which returns 7 digits if the number can be represented with that precision or 9 digits if the number can only be represented with maximum precision.
