C#: Formating Price value string

Question

in C#,I have a double variable price with value 10215.24. I want to show the price with comma after some digits.Can anyone help me to do this.My expected output is 10,215.24

Answer 1

I think this should do it:

String.Format("{0:C}", doubleVar);

If you don't want the currency symbol, then just do this:

String.Format("{0:N2}", doubleVar);

Answer 2

Look into format strings, specifically "C" or "N".

double price = 1234.25;
string FormattedPrice = price.ToString("N"); // 1,234.25

Answer 3

myPrice.ToString("C2");

or

myPrice.ToString("N2");

depending on what you want. (The number after the C or N indicates how many decimals should be used). (C formats the number as a currency string, which includes a currency symbol)

To be completely politically correct, you can also specify the CultureInfo that should be used.

Answer 4

As a side note, I would recommend looking into the Decimal type for currency. It avoids the rounding errors that plague floats, but unlike Integer, it can have digits after the decimal point.

This might help

    String.Format("{#,##0.00}", 1243.50); // Outputs “1,243.50″

    String.Format(”{0:$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00);Zero}”, 1243.50); // Outputs “$1,243.50″ 

    String.Format(”{0:$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00);Zero}”, -1243.50); // Outputs “($1,243.50)″ 

    String.Format(”{0:$#,##0.00;($#,##0.00);Zero}”, 0); // Outputs “Zero″
