How to take away fraction part using String.Format (c#)

Question

How to take away fraction part while formatting decimal type in C#?

        decimal a = 1.00m;

        String.Format("{0}", a); // result is 1.00 Should be 1, HOW?

Answer 1

You can use:

String.Format("{0:N0}", a); // "1"

Or, to display 1 decimal point:

String.Format("{0:N1}", a); // "1.0"

More info on Standard Numeric Format Strings.

Answer 2

You could always Floor it:

String.Format("{0}", Math.Floor(a));

Or, since there's nothing else in this Format line, just go this way:

Math.Floor(a).ToString();

Answer 3

Try this:

String.Format("{0:0}", a);
