Of course you can, just use double.Parse or better still TryParse
double d = double.Parse("0.555");

Is the decimal separator in your country by any chance a comma? How about this for verification;
string s = "0.55555";
double d = Convert.ToDouble(s, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string s2 = d.ToString("#,#0.0");
Console.WriteLine(s2);

Ok it doesn't work without System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture but with it in Convert.Double(s, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) works just fine. Can you explain me please what does this have to do with rounding numbers?
Thx

It interprets the decimal point wrong, if you replace the point with a comma then all goes well. There's also a System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.
The invariant culture will use the decimal-point, no matter what's been set currently by the user. If you convert the double "2.0" from invariant to your CurrentCulture[^], then you'd probably get "2,0"

I'm not quite sure how you're approching this but it's quite simple
public static double StringToRoundedDouble(string s, int decimals)
{
double result;
if (double.TryParse(s, out result))
result = Math.Round(result, decimals, MidpointRounding.AwayFromZero);
return result;
}Useage
double d =(StringToRoundedDouble("0.5555", 1);

hi im coding c# sockets in Asynchronous mode.
my app is running but i need to limit the number clients to one. so if a connection already exists i want the server to refuse any new connection. but using async methods i cant stop it from listening.
the server will have to be restarted everytime the unique connection is terminated, so i dont need it to serve next new connection.
how could i refuse new connections when async does not support it?
thank you very much.

Whether you're using synchronous or asynchronous methods you have to explicitly tell the TcpListener or Socket to accept a new connection using one of the BeginAccept or Accept methods. If you don't want more than one client connected then don't call those methods more than once.

|

perfect! i understand it now. thanks.
|
|
|
|

are you sure you still want asynchronous operation if all that is going on is a single connection?
seems to me you're paying the bills but not getting the goods.

I will answer them only if you can answer yes to any of the following:
Have you gone to class once this semester?
Are you looking forward to bagging my groceries next year?
Do you know how annoying it is to have kids come here before mid-terms and ask basic questions they should have known by class #3?
Do you understand that this series of mock questions is your last call to go see your teacher and get a tutor before you flunk out of your program?
Seriously, this is your last chance.

Yes and no. You decide which questions these apply to.

I have a groupBox that has N PictureBox controls on it.
Each PictureBox is named thmb1-N e.g thmb26.
I have a list of paths, of thumbnail images, which I want to iterate through and set PictureBox control ImageLocation properties for each PictureBox .
The code I have written below is a first rather messy and quick attempt - which is cumbersome and I really don't want to be iterating through every object.
Is there a better way of doing this?
If I could do something like thmb + N.ImageLocation = ... but i realise I cannot do this in C# so any help in directing me towards how to do this would be much appreciated.

for (int i = 0; i < bubble.thumbs.Count; i++)
{
foreach (Control ctrl in this.groupBox8.Controls)
{
if (ctrl is PictureBox)
{
if (LeftRightMid.Left(ctrl.Name.ToString(), 4) == "thmb"
&& Convert.ToInt32(LeftRightMid.Right(ctrl.Name.ToString(), 1)) == i)
{
((PictureBox)(ctrl)).ImageLocation = bubble.thumbs[i];
}
}
}
}

You could do this:
PictureBox pic;
for (int i = 0; i < bubble.thumbs.Count; i++)
{
string ctrlName = "thmb" + i;
pic = this.groupBox8.Controls[ctrlName] as PictureBox;
if (pic != null)
{
pic.ImageLocation = bubble.thumbs[i];
}
}
But I would probably re-think my whole approach! If you have to use .Controls, then you are hard-wiring your code to a specific implementation - not at all good for re-usabillity!

Thanks - your code is much more elegant than mine.
I agree with you about re-thinking my approach.
I use SAS in my work, C# being a hobby, and in SAS you can do something like:
n=1<br />
thmb + n .imagelocation = "C\image.jpeg" <br />
Which is the dynamic equivalent of thmb1.imagelocation = "C\image.jpeg"
I have googled and looked on code project but I think it is a case of not knowing which question to ask - as I have not found anything similar to my example above for C#.
Thanks for your help - I will use what you suggest until I find what I am looking for.

How about a List<string, System.Windows.Forms.Control>? You could iterate through the components when the form is done loading, adding the PictureBoxes to a List. Then you could use a for/each construct to loop through the pictureboxes

Hi,
You have two nested loops, which is one too many for the job at hand.
You either drop the loop over controls (that is what Griff suggested), or even simpler, you drop the one looping over the bubbles, like so:
foreach (Control ctrl in this.groupBox8.Controls) {
pb = ctrl as PictureBox;
if (pb != null && LeftRightMid.Left(ctrl.Name, 4) == "thmb") {
int i = Convert.ToInt32(LeftRightMid.Right(ctrl.Name, 1));
pb.ImageLocation = bubble.thumbs[i];
}
}
Note:
- I used "as" instead of "is", removing the need for later casts
- I dropped some ToString() calls, as the object already was a string
- I use "i" as an index, no need to repeat that in a loop
- this code should be faster than Griff's one, as his Controls[name] lookup takes much more effort than a simple array index operation.
BTW: I doubt ANY of the versions shown will work correctly for N>=10 as you only are using one character to extract the thmb number from the control's name. The fix for that would be to take the substring that starts at the position (hence counting from the left side, not the right side); string.SubString() is what you would use then.

Thank you for all of your help.
Yes I was thinking the ToString was a bit ott on my part in some places.
Good point on the N>=10 issue - you have written the code for me without me even having to say 'plz help meez'
