    Formatting string number

    Hello,

    I need to print only 2 decimals on the output.
    Let's say I have this code:
    Code:
    int a = 5;
    int b = 16;
    
    double c = a / b;
    the result is 0.3125.
    If I want to print only 0.31, how should the correct print code be?

    Thanks.

    Please try
    Code:
    Print(c.ToString("#.##"));

      I did, but it doesn't show any number.

        The problem is that you divide 2 integers which in your case results in c = 0. Just make a and b of type double.

          I tried with double, but doesn't work.

            I strongly recommend consulting the MS C# docs to understand the basics of .NET numerics operations and how to format numerics.

            I just tested this code:
            Code:
            double a = 5;
            double b = 16;
            double c = a / b;
            Print(c.ToString("#.##"));
            ... and it prints out ",31" on my German Windows.

            Try
            Code:
            c.ToString("0.##")
            ... if you want to have a leading 0.
