Parse string to float number C#

Question

I have float number in string. there is one problem. Number uses \".\" not \",\" as decimal point.

This code is not working:

MyNumber = float.Parse(\         


        

Answer 1

It depends on current culture of currently executed thread culture.

float.Parse("123,5", system.threading.thread.currentthread.currentculture); 

float.Parse("123.5", system.threading.thread.currentthread.currentculture); 

IF you strictly do not want culturespecific then

float.Parse("123.5", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
