In case if we do not want use extra variable.
string strOrderId = "435242A";
bool isDecimal = isDecimal(strOrderId);
public bool isDecimal(string value) {
try {
Decimal.Parse(value);
return true;
} catch {
return false;
}
}
Take advantage of the discard symbol _ and use
if (decimal.TryParse(stringValue, out _))
{
// valid decimal
}
else
{
// not decimal
}
This simple code will allow integer or decimal value and rejects alphabets and symbols.
foreach (char ch in strOrderId)
{
if (!char.IsDigit(ch) && ch != '.')
{
MessageBox.Show("This is not a decimal \n");
return;
}
else
{
//this is a decimal value
}
}
Declare decimal out value in TryParse
if(Decimal.TryParse(stringValue,out decimal dec))
{
// ....
}
Think simple.
decimal decNumber = decimal.Parse("9.99");
if (decNumber % 1 > 0)
{
//decimal area
}
else
{
//int area
}
