regex to validate double values

Question

I\'m trying to come up with a regex to validate a double value. I will admit that I am crap at regex and really should buy a book... Anyway the range is large so here goes:

Answer 1

Rather than a RegEx, why not use double's TryParse method?

string[] sa = new string[] { "00.01", "1.00", "xx" };
double d;
bool isValid;
foreach (string s in sa)
{
    isValid = double.TryParse(s, out d) && d >= 0.01d && d <= 99.99d;
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", s, isValid.ToString());
}
