tostring

I would like to change decimal point to another character in C#. I have a double variable value double value; and when I use the command: Console.WriteLine(value.ToString()); // output is 1,25 I know I can do this: Console.WriteLine(value.ToString( CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-GB"))); // output is 1.25 but I don't like it very much because it's very long and I need it quite often in my program. Is there a shorter version for setting "decimal point" really as point and not comma as is in my culture is usual? romanz Some shortcut is to create a NumberFormatInfo class, set its

I have new XmlDocument object, i.g. xml is created during my program... I want all numeric values in created xml was with dot symbol instead of comma by default. Can I do something to declare it once, not to parse every decimal value? I.e. To set up this dot instead of comma somewhere in the beginning and don't worry about this till the end?

I need help on keeping the precision of a double . If I assign a literal to a double, the actual value was truncated. int main() { double x = 7.40200133400; std::cout << x << "\n"; } For the above code snippet, the output was 7.402 Is there a way to prevent this type of truncation? Or is there a way to calculate exactly how many floating points for a double ? For example, number_of_decimal(x) would give 11, since the input is unknown at run-time so I can't use setprecision() . I think I should change my question to: How to convert a double to a string without truncating the floating points. i

This may sound very basic... can someone please explain the use of the toString() method and when to effectively use this? Have done a search on google but could not find any good resource. In most languages, toString or the equivalent method just guarantees that an object can be represented textually. This is especially useful for logging, debugging, or any other circumstance where you need to be able to render any and every object you encounter as a string. Objects often implement custom toString behavior so that the method actually tells you something about the object instance. For example,
