Question

I am attempting to convert a float into a string.

I have a string (dividedstring[2]) that represents CPU load e.g. 0.00 or 0.01 or 0.54 etc.

I then would like to convert this into a float, so I do the following:

float.TryParse(dividedstring[2], out insertCPUvalue);

Now when I attempt to display the float e.g.:

MessageBox.Show(insertCPUvalue.ToString());

I get: “0”, now I am assuming this is because the string “dividedstring[2]” was == “0.00”, so it has just taken the decimal points of? – and rounded it to 0?

Answer 1

float f = 0.0000666f;
Messagebox.Show(String.Format("{0:0,0.0000000}", f));
