How to change 1 to 00001?

Question

I want to have numbers with a fixed digit count.

example: 00001, 00198, 48484

I can do like this:

    string value;
    if (number < 10)

You should use the ToString() method with custom formating - see the docs. In particular the 0 specifier.

Replaces the zero with the corresponding digit if one is present; otherwise, zero appears in the result string.

eg,

value = number.Tostring("00000");
