Parameters

format

A string that specifies the format of the returned string.

Note: For a list of valid values, see byte.ToString(string, IFormatProvider ).

Returns

A string representation of the current instance formatted as specified by format. The string takes into account the current system culture.

Exceptions

Type	Reason
FormatException	format is invalid.

Remarks

This version of byte.ToString is equivalent to byte.ToString (format , null ).

If format is null , the general format specifier "G" is used.

Example

The following example demonstrates the byte.ToString method.

C# Example

using System;
public class ByteToStringExample {
   public static void Main() {
      Byte b = 8;
      Console.WriteLine(b);
      String[] formats = {"c", "d", "e", "f", "g", "n", "p", "x" };
      foreach(String str in formats)
         Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", str, b.ToString(str));
   }
}
   

The output is

8
c: $8.00
d: 8
e: 8.000000e+000
f: 8.00
g: 8
n: 8.00
p: 800.00 %
x: 8
