C# Check if a decimal has more than 3 decimal places?

Question

I have a situation that I cannot change: one database table (table A) accepts 6 decimal places, while a related column in a different table (table B) only has 3 decimal plac

Answer 1

All of the solutions proposed so far are not extensible ... fine if you are never going to check a value other than 3, but I prefer this because if the requirement changes the code to handle it is already written. Also this solution wont overflow.

int GetDecimalCount(decimal val)
{
    if(val == val*10)
    {
        return int.MaxValue; // no decimal.Epsilon I don't use this type enough to know why... this will work
    }

    int decimalCount = 0;
    while(val != Math.Floor(val))
    {
        val = (val - Math.Floor(val)) * 10;
        decimalCount++;
    }
    return decimalCount;
}
