Questiondouble -> float : casting or Convert.ToSingle ? Pin
crushinghellhammer27-Jul-04 13:13

Hi,

I want to convert variables of type double to type float in my C# app.

I've read that casting from a double to float results in the double being rounded to the nearest float value. That is exactly what I need (as opposed to truncation).

However, I've also seen that the Convert.ToSingle(double) method uses rounding as well to convert the double to a float.

Is there any difference between these two techniques - casting and ToSingle? Are there scenarios in which one is preferable over the other? What about overhead?

Thanks!
