easy way to format numbers to strings?

[BobLewiston]

In C#, I'd like to convert some numbers to strings in a standard format, but preferably in a simple way, such as if you were going to output them rather than store them in string variables, a la:

Console.WriteLine ("{0:F2}", num);

rather than use a bunch or string methods to make them all the same number of significant digits. Isn't there any way to do this?

Well there is the .ToString() function on every data type

Expanding on what Plater said... .ToString() has some overrides that allow you to use nearly all the same format commands as what you included in your question.

float bob = 69.486;
string strBob = bob.ToString("{0:F2}");

Should work. Might need a little massaging; its been a while since I've done that.

I think its just .ToString("F2") ;
