Format string for cents only in C #

Question

I have a dollar amount of 23.15. I want to format it so that I can only return 0.15 or 15, since I want to place only cents in the html <sup> .

To return only dollars, I used {0:C0} or unsigned $ {0:N0}

Edit: Apparently {0:C0} and {0:N0} will not work for me, because they are rounded to the nearest whole number: (

Answer 1

If you need a string with html tags, you can use something like this:

  var decimalValue = 23.15m; string value2 = decimalValue.ToString("$ #.<sup>##</sup>"); //$ 23.<sup>15</sup> 

Also if you want a quantity with cents instead

 var value = String.Format("{0:C0}", decimalValue); // $23 

using

  var value = String.Format("{0:C2}", decimalValue); // $23.15 

Zero after 'C' in the format '{0: C0}' means the number of characters after the period.

Answer 2

Not the main way, but it will work :)

 dollarAmount - Math.Floor(dollarAmount) 

you get cents (in your example, get .15).

Answer 3

class program {static void Main (string [] args)

  { double Num; // declaring "Num" as a double Console.WriteLine("Please enter dollar and cents amount\nExample: 4.52"); //This bit of code informs the user what type of information you want from them Num = double.Parse( Console.ReadLine()); //assigns "Num" to the users input and sets the user input as numerical value and stores it in the temporary memory Console.WriteLine("You have {1} dollars and {2} cents from {0:c}.", Num, WhyAreWeDoingThis(ref Num), Num); //returns the values requested and sends "Num" through the program to separate dollars from cents. //first: off in{0:c} it takes the original user input and gives it the dollar sign$ due to the additional code to the left of the zero as shown {0:c} //second: "Num" is sent to the WhyAreWeDoingThis Method through the reference method "ref" where the dollar amount is separated from the cent amount //*Note* this will only return the dollar amount not the cents* //Third: the second "Num" referred to at this point is only the remaining cents from the total money amount. //*Note* this is because the program is moving "Num" around as a stored value from function to function not grabbing the users original input every time. Console.ReadLine(); //this keeps the program open } static int WhyAreWeDoingThis(ref double A) // reference method //*Note* it is set as a "static int" and (ref double) { int dd = (int)A; //this turn the double into a temporary integer by type casting for this one operation only. A = A % dd; //Separates the dollars from the cents leaving only the cents in the "Num" value through the Modulus Operand. return dd; //returns the dollar amount. } }
