DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(input, "yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss.fff", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

In practice, you would wrap a call to DateTime.ParseExact in a try/catch block ... because it will throw an error if it fails.

Better to use TryParseExact, which won't.

I am actively looking for the best library that will allow assessing the multiple values, based on weights (preferable as int instead of double from 10,000 - 120,000).
I was looking into many different examples but each one of them is either operating on linear functions or using double.
Let say I will have 4 columns:
Column A, Column B, Column C, Column D
120, 3, 3.23, false
84, 12, 2.12, false,
22, 3, 2.1, true
Which AI C# library could assess the output based on weights (column A weight from (10k to 120k depending on the int))
I am kinda stuck here.  Looking for a way to start with this, even with simpler example (so just with two columns like column 120 = 10k, 84 = 11k, 22 = 23k, column b = 0.3, 1.2, 0.3)).
I will greatly appreciate any direction just to get me started
Thanks in advance.

A neural network can be used to perform a "non-linear" regression.

Thank you for a link!
I was sure that it is possible, as I was using different samples and one of them can even generate simple working code with an output.
I just need to get well explained example to start from that point 
THANK YOU VERY MUCH !

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem practical to link anything less than my whole program to solve this issue: Solver[^] If I'm wrong about that, I'd be happy to hear how in addition to the answer to the question itself so I can ask more manageable questions in the future.
The bug occurs for the text input "32^(1/5)", without quotes, somewhere during the fourth execution for the foreach loop on line 635. The four pairs of lines that print when the program is executed with this input are the WriteLine() calls on lines 639 and 642. I added those calls in the hope of seeing how the collection in question differs before and after line 640 executes, but evidently, whatever the alteration is is not revealed by the ToString() override of its element. I don't know what kind of alteration this could be.
The multiply() override called by the * in line 640 at this point - the one on line 611 in the Product class - does touch the contents of Factors, but only once, on line 617:
List<Factor> factors = new List<Factor>(Factors);
I thought that this makes factors a copy of Factors rather than another reference to the same object, so that making changes to the former doesn't affect the latter.
|
|
|
|
|
It makes a copy of Factors yes - in that it copies the reference to each object in the collection to a new collection, it does not duplicate the items themselves (a shallow copy, rather than a deep copy).
The new collection refers to exactly the same objects as the old one, and any change to those objects will be visible from both collections:
public class MyClass
{
public int X;
}
private void MyButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
List<MyClass> items = new List<MyClass>() { new MyClass(){X = 111}, new MyClass(){X = 222}, new MyClass(){X = 333} };
List<MyClass> itemsCopy = new List<MyClass>(items);
items[0].X = 666;
itemsCopy[1].X = 777;
foreach (MyClass m in items)
{
Console.WriteLine(m.X);
}
...
Will generate:
666
777
333 So if you will have to look closely at what you are doing with your new collection and the objects it contains.

I intended to make all of my Number classes immutable, and thought I had done so. If they are in fact immutable, is there any danger left?
|
|
|
|
|
Depends on how immutable you made them! 
You know how to do that, I assume:
1) Remove the setters of the class, only have getters.
2) Provide all parameters via constructor.
3) Make all variables readonly.
Do note that doesn't mean that any collections an immutable class contains will themselves be immutable: Add and Remove will still work for example, only the assignment of a new collection will not be possible.

OK, so I'm creating a simple card game. So far I can move my cards with mouse and this work as it should, but on the other hand I feel that most of my code is wrong because I had to repeat the same method for each object. So I'd like to simplify my code. Tried to use lists, collections and 'foreach' loops, but couldn't make it work. How can I make my code smaller, simpler and more elegant?

That does look quite ugly.
You need to start by reading at the builder pattern, to build up the objects (you had a switch statement in the constructor).Understanding and Implementing Builder Pattern in C#.
Then as for the rest of the code, I might just create a separate function to handle the types, because most of the operations are same.
case 1:
RedCard.Position.X = e.X + OffsetX;
RedCard.Position.Y = e.Y + OffsetY;
Table.Invalidate();
break;
case 2:
BlueCard.Position.X = e.X + OffsetX;
BlueCard.Position.Y = e.Y + OffsetY;
Table.Invalidate();
break;
That part of the code can be rewritten to, something like this,
private void updateCardPosition(Card card, int x, int y) {
card.Position.X = x;
card.Position.Y = y;
}
case 1:
updateCardPosition(RedCard);
Lastly, the Table.Invalidate(); gets called in each of the block, so you can bring it out of the switch statement.
So basically you need to rewrite the code a bit functional in nature. Otherwise your code looks fine to me, just the redundancy of the code which you have to remove.

I am receiving an unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occured in System.Drawing.dll error. The additional information is 'Parameter is not valid.
This error just recently started occurring and it happens in the designer page in the InitializeComponent procedure.
All the forms have started showing this message when trying to create a text box, combo box etc.
The controls are dragged and dropped onto the form without any data binding or any special restrictions etc.
When I create a new project adding the exact same type of layout, the application seems to be working fine.
Google overs no solution to this problem.

i have two or three forms created in c#sharp and in each form i am repeating the steps of attaching the library,the entering the routine code of data adapter,connection and other stuff , is there a easy way to put it inside central class library so that i can refer it instead of typing it everytime.
|
|
|
|

Yes, there is. You can make this as fine grained as you like - it would be easier if you move away from using the data adapter. What you are basically looking at is how to make the data access part of a data access layer. This really isn't that difficult, as you're looking at the ability to update data, retrieve data, called stored procs and the likes. If I were you, I would just tackle adding each part just as I needed it. So, start with the easy stuff - getting the connection string, opening a connection, closing it, issuing a command directly (make sure to use parameterised properties, rather than concatenating values in).

There are a vast number of Data Access Layer (DAL) samples around CP Search
However Pete's suggestion that you roll your own is absolutely valid, get some ideas from others but every competent developer should have written his own DAL. Start small and build on it as additional requirements arise.

I want to download same data from a web page. Using Excel webquery it works, while using C# it doesn't.
Here my code:
WebClient webClient = new WebClient();
a = "http://www.borsaitaliana.it/borsa/obbligazioni/mot/obbligazioni-in-euro/dati-completi.html?isin=DE000UB5WF78&lang=it";
string page = webClient.DownloadString(a);
System.Net.WebException: 'The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.'
Have you any ideas?
Thanks for your time
