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)
          


        

Answer 1

If you wish to return 5 digits numbers, you should use the PadLeft() function;

int Value = 101;
char pad = '0';
String sValue = Value.ToString();

sValue  = sValue.s.PadLeft(5, char)

In this case, you don't have to test whether to add 1, 2 or 3 zeros, it'll automatically add the number of zeros needed to make it 5 digits number.
