I know it's possible to check whether the value of a text box or variable is numeric using try/catch statements, but IsNumeric
is so much simpler. One of my current projects requires recovering values from text boxes. Unfortunately, it is written in C#.
I understand that there's a way to enable the Visual Basic IsNumeric
function in Visual C# by adding a reference to Visual Basic, though I don't know the syntax for it. What I need is a clear and concise walkthrough for enabling the IsNumeric
function in C#. I don't plan on using any other functions indigenous to Visual Basic.
C library function - isdigit() The C library function int isdigit(int c) checks if the passed character is a decimal digit character. Decimal digits are (numbers) − 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9.
Using built-in method isdigit(), each character of string is checked. If the string character is a number, it will print that string contains int. If string contains character or alphabet, it will print that string does not contain int.
The isalpha() function checks whether a character is an alphabet or not. In C programming, isalpha() function checks whether a character is an alphabet (a to z and A-Z) or not. If a character passed to isalpha() is an alphabet, it returns a non-zero integer, if not it returns 0.
public bool IsNumeric(string value) { return value.All(char.IsNumber); }
