Round a decimal number to the first decimal position that is not zero

Question

I want to shorten a number to the first significant digit that is not 0. The digits behind should be rounded.

Examples:

0.001 -> 0.001
0.00367 -&g         


        

Answer 1

Another approach

    decimal RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(decimal value)
    {
        var nullDecimals = value.ToString().Split('.').LastOrDefault()?.TakeWhile(c => c == '0').Count();
        var roundTo = nullDecimals.HasValue && nullDecimals >= 1 ? nullDecimals.Value + 1 : 2;
        return Math.Round(value, roundTo);
    }

Result

        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(0.001m));                0.001
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(0.00367m));              0.004
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(0.000000564m));          0.0000006
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(0.00000432907543029m));  0.000004
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(0.12m));                 0.12
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(1.232m));                1.23
        Console.WriteLine(RoundToFirstNonNullDecimal(7));                     7.00
