C#: Formatting Price value string

Question

in C#,I have a double variable price with value 10215.24. I want to show the price with comma after some digits. My expected output is 10,215.24

Answer 1

myPrice.ToString("N2");

depending on what you want, you may also wish to display the currency symbol:

myPrice.ToString("C2");

(The number after the C or N indicates how many decimals should be used). (C formats the number as a currency string, which includes a currency symbol)

To be completely politically correct, you can also specify the CultureInfo that should be used.

Answer 2

I think this should do it:

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

If you don't want the currency symbol, then just do this:

String.Format("{0:N2}", doubleVar);
