Format decimal for percentage values?

开发者 https://www.devze.com 2022-12-12 15:09 出处:网络
What I want is something like this: String.Format(\"Value: {0:%%}.\", 0.8526) Where %% is that format provider or whatever I am looking for.

What I want is something like this:

String.Format("Value: {0:%%}.", 0.8526)

Where %% is that format provider or whatever I am looking for. Should result: Value: %85.26..

I basically need it for wpf binding, but first let's solve the general formatting is开发者_JAVA技巧sue:

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Percent, StringFormat=%%}" />


Use the P format string. This will vary by culture:

String.Format("Value: {0:P2}.", 0.8526) // formats as 85.26 % (varies by culture)


If you have a good reason to set aside culture-dependent formatting and get explicit control over whether or not there's a space between the value and the "%", and whether the "%" is leading or trailing, you can use NumberFormatInfo's PercentPositivePattern and PercentNegativePattern properties.

For example, to get a decimal value with a trailing "%" and no space between the value and the "%":

myValue.ToString("P2", new NumberFormatInfo { PercentPositivePattern = 1, PercentNegativePattern = 1 });

More complete example:

using System.Globalization; 

...

decimal myValue = -0.123m;
NumberFormatInfo percentageFormat = new NumberFormatInfo { PercentPositivePattern = 1, PercentNegativePattern = 1 };
string formattedValue = myValue.ToString("P2", percentageFormat); // "-12.30%" (in en-us)


If you want to use a format that allows you to keep the number like your entry this format works for me: "# \\%"


Set your culture and "P" string format.

CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo("en-us");
double floating = 72.948615;

Console.WriteLine("P02: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P02", ci)); 
Console.WriteLine("P01: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P01", ci)); 
Console.WriteLine("P: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P", ci)); 
Console.WriteLine("P0: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P0", ci));
Console.WriteLine("P1: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P1", ci));
Console.WriteLine("P3: {0}", (floating/100).ToString("P3", ci));

Output:

"P02: 72.95%"

"P01: 72.9%"

"P: 72.95%"

"P0: 72%"

"P1: 72.9%"

"P3: 72.949%"


This code may help you:

double d = double.Parse(input_value);
string output= d.ToString("F2", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + "%";


You can also use a "%" custom specifier and manually control the sign position. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/standard/base-types/custom-numeric-format-strings#SpecifierPct

A percent sign (%) in a format string causes a number to be multiplied by 100 before it is formatted. The localized percent symbol is inserted in the number at the location where the % appears in the format string.

string.Format("{0:0.0%}", 0.6493072393590115)
// outputs 64.9%

string.Format("{0:%000}", 0.6493072393590115)
// outputs %065


I have found the above answer to be the best solution, but I don't like the leading space before the percent sign. I have seen somewhat complicated solutions, but I just use this Replace addition to the answer above instead of using other rounding solutions.

String.Format("Value: {0:P2}.", 0.8526).Replace(" %","%") // formats as 85.26% (varies by culture)
