Single.ToString Method in C# | Set – 1

Last Updated : 01 May, 2019

Single.ToString() Method is used to convert the numeric value of the current instance to its equivalent string representation. There are 4 methods in the overload list of this method as follows:

ToString(String) Method
ToString() Method
ToString(IFormatProvider) Method
ToString(String, IFormatProvider) Method

Here, we will discuss the first two methods.

ToString(String) Method

This method is used to convert the numeric value of the current instance to its equivalent string representation, using the specified format.

Syntax: public string ToString (string format);
Here, it takes a numeric format string.

Return Value: This method returns the string representation of the value of the current instance as specified by format.

Exceptions: This method throws FormatException if format is invalid.

Example 1:

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// Single.ToString(String) Method 
using System; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
        try { 
  
            // Declaring and initializing value 
            float value = 565998.1564f; 
  
            // Declaring and initializing format 
            string s = "E04"; 
  
            // using the method 
            string str = value.ToString(s); 
  
            // Display the value 
            Console.WriteLine("String value is {0}", str); 
        } 
  
        catch (FormatException e)  
        { 
            Console.WriteLine("Format is invalid."); 
            Console.Write("Exception Thrown: "); 
            Console.Write("{0}", e.GetType(), e.Message); 
        } 
    } 
} 

Output:

String value is 5.6600E+005

Example 2: For FormatException

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// Single.ToString(String) Method 
using System; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
        try { 
  
            // Declaring and initializing value 
            float value = 1623325.62412f; 
  
            // Declaring and initializing format 
            string s = "a"; 
  
            // using the method 
            string str = value.ToString(s); 
  
            // Display the value 
            Console.WriteLine("String value is {0}", str); 
        } 
  
        catch (FormatException e) 
        { 
            Console.WriteLine("Format is invalid."); 
            Console.Write("Exception Thrown: "); 
            Console.Write("{0}", e.GetType(), e.Message); 
        } 
    } 
} 

Output:

Format is invalid.
Exception Thrown: System.FormatException

ToString() Method

This method is used to convert the numeric value of the current instance to its equivalent string representation.

Syntax: public override string ToString ();

Return Value: This method returns a string which represents the value of this instance.

Below programs illustrate the use of Single.ToString() Method:

Example 1:

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// Single.ToString() Method 
using System; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
  
        // Declaring and initializing value 
        float value = 792759354.39503305f; 
  
        // using ToString() method 
        string res = value.ToString(); 
  
        // Display the value 
        Console.WriteLine("String value is {0}", res); 
    } 
} 

Output:

String value is 7.927594E+08

Example 2:

// C# program to demonstrate the 
// Single.ToString() Method 
using System; 
using System.Globalization; 
  
class GFG { 
  
    // Main Method 
    public static void Main() 
    { 
  
        // calling get() method 
        get(Single.MaxValue); 
        get(Single.MinValue); 
        get(40f); 
        get(424967295.5858f); 
    } 
  
    // defining get() method 
    public static void get(float value) 
    { 
  
        // using ToString() method 
        string res = value.ToString(); 
  
        // Display the value 
        Console.WriteLine("String value is {0}", res); 
    } 
} 

Output:

String value is 3.402823E+38
String value is -3.402823E+38
String value is 40
String value is 4.249673E+08
