Stack Overflow Asked by theoverly on September 18, 2020
I’m a beginner when it comes to programing, started learning C# just a few weeks ago.
I’m currently working on an asignment where I’m supposed to take an input from the user and change the number of decimals shown according to that number.
I have been toying with two methods within what I’ve learnt so far, but the problem is that whenever i try to set the number of decimals to show to over three it will start skipping numbers, so when I try to set it to four decimals, the real forth decimal will be skipped and replaced by the fifth, and so on…
Here’s one of the examples;
double d1 = 0.123456789;
string dtest0 = d1.ToString("f0");
string dtest1 = d1.ToString("f1");
string dtest2 = d1.ToString("f2");
string dtest3 = d1.ToString("f3");
string dtest4 = d1.ToString("f4");
string dtest5 = d1.ToString("f5");
string dtest6 = d1.ToString("f6");
string dtest7 = d1.ToString("f7");
string dtest8 = d1.ToString("f8");
string dtest9 = d1.ToString("f9");
Console.WriteLine(dtest0);//output 0
Console.WriteLine(dtest1);//output 0,1
Console.WriteLine(dtest2);//output 0,12
Console.WriteLine(dtest3);//output 0,123
Console.WriteLine(dtest4);//output 0,1235
Console.WriteLine(dtest5);//output 0,12346
Console.WriteLine(dtest6);//output 0,123457
Console.WriteLine(dtest7);//output 0,1234568
Console.WriteLine(dtest8);//output 0,12345679
Console.WriteLine(dtest9);//output 0,123456789
This is the code I first tried where I’m taking input from user, same problem;
double nr1 = 0.123456789
Console.Write("Add request phrase for input ");
string input2 = (Console.ReadLine());
int nr2 = Convert.ToInt32(input2);
switch (nr2)
{
case 0:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##."));//Works
break;
case 1:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.#"));//Works
break;
case 2:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.##"));//Works
break;
case 3:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.###"));//Works
break;
case 4:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.####"));//Skips nr 4 but gives 4 decimals(0,1235)
break;
case 5:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.#####"));//Skips nr 5 but gives 5 decimals(0,12346)
break;
case 6:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.######"));//Skips nr 6 but gives 6 decimals(0,123457)
break;
case 7:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.#######"));//Skips nr 7 but gives 7 decimals(0,1234568)
break;
case 8:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.########"));//Skips nr 8 but gives 8 decimals(0,12345679)
break;
case 9:
Console.WriteLine(nr1.ToString("##.#########"));//Works
break;
default:
Console.WriteLine("Add answer for unexpected input");
break;
}
Can anyone help me figure out what I’m doing wrong and explain why the numbers are switching out?
