如何计算一个数字的总位数？

Question

How can I get a count of the total number of digits of a number in C#? For example, the number 887979789 has 9 digits.

Answer 1

无需转换为字符串，您可以尝试

Math.Floor(Math.Log10(n) + 1);

Answer 2

Try This:

myint.ToString().Length

Does that work ?

Answer 3

The Solution

Any of the following extension methods will do the job. All of them consider the minus sign as a digit, and work correctly for all possible input values. They also work for .NET Framework and for .NET Core. There are however relevant performance differences (discussed below), depending on your choice of Platform / Framework.

Int32 version:

public static class Int32Extensions
{
    // IF-CHAIN:
    public static int Digits_IfChain(this int n)
    {
        if (n >= 0)
        {
            if (n < 10) return 1;
            if (n < 100) return 2;
            if (n < 1000) return 3;
            if (n < 10000) return 4;
            if (n < 100000) return 5;
            if (n < 1000000) return 6;
            if (n < 10000000) return 7;
            if (n < 100000000) return 8;
            if (n < 1000000000) return 9;
            return 10;
        }
        else
        {
            if (n > -10) return 2;
            if (n > -100) return 3;
            if (n > -1000) return 4;
            if (n > -10000) return 5;
            if (n > -100000) return 6;
            if (n > -1000000) return 7;
            if (n > -10000000) return 8;
            if (n > -100000000) return 9;
            if (n > -1000000000) return 10;
            return 11;
        }
    }

    // USING LOG10:
    public static int Digits_Log10(this int n) =>
        n == 0 ? 1 : (n > 0 ? 1 : 2) + (int)Math.Log10(Math.Abs((double)n));

    // WHILE LOOP:
    public static int Digits_While(this int n)
    {
        int digits = n < 0 ? 2 : 1;
        while ((n /= 10) != 0) ++digits;
        return digits;
    }

    // STRING CONVERSION:
    public static int Digits_String(this int n) =>
        n.ToString().Length;
}

Discussion

This answer includes tests performed for both Int32 and Int64 types, using an array of 100.000.000 randomly sampled int / long numbers. The random dataset is pre-processed into an array before executing the tests.

Consistency tests among the 4 different methods were also executed, for MinValue , negative border cases, -1 , 0 , 1 , positive border cases, MaxValue , and also for the whole random dataset. No consistency tests fail for the above provided methods, EXCEPT for the LOG10 method (this is discussed later).

The tests were executed on .NET Framework 4.7.2 and .NET Core 2.2 ; for x86 and x64 platforms, on a 64-bit Intel Processor machine, with Windows 10 , and with VS2017 v.15.9.17 . The following 4 cases have the same effect on performance results:

.NET Framework (x86)

• Platform = x86

• Platform = AnyCPU , Prefer 32-bit is checked in project settings

.NET Framework (x64)

• Platform = x64

• Platform = AnyCPU , Prefer 32-bit is unchecked in project settings

.NET Core (x86)

• "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\dotnet\\dotnet.exe" bin\\Release\\netcoreapp2.2\\ConsoleApp.dll

• "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\dotnet\\dotnet.exe" bin\\x86\\Release\\netcoreapp2.2\\ConsoleApp.dll

.NET Core (x64)

• "C:\\Program Files\\dotnet\\dotnet.exe" bin\\Release\\netcoreapp2.2\\ConsoleApp.dll

• "C:\\Program Files\\dotnet\\dotnet.exe" bin\\x64\\Release\\netcoreapp2.2\\ConsoleApp.dll

Results

The performance tests below produce a uniform distribution of values among the wide range of values an integer could assume. This means there is a much higher chance of testing values with a big count of digits. In real life scenarios, most values may be small, so the IF-CHAIN should perform even better. Furthermore, the processor will cache and optimize the IF-CHAIN decisions according to your dataset.

As @AlanSingfield pointed out in the comment section, the LOG10 method had to be fixed with a casting to double inside Math.Abs() for the case when the input value is int.MinValue or long.MinValue .

Regarding the early performance tests I've implemented before editing this question (it had to be edited a million times already), there was a specific case pointed out by @GyörgyKőszeg , in which the IF-CHAIN method performs slower than the LOG10 method.

This still happens, although the magnitude of the difference became much lower after the fix for the issue pointed out by @AlanSingfield . This fix (adding a cast to double ) causes a computation error when the input value is exactly -999999999999999999 : the LOG10 method returns 20 instead of 19 . The LOG10 method also must have a if guard for the case when the input value is zero.

The LOG10 method is quite tricky to get working for all values, which means you should avoid it. If someone finds a way to make it work correctly for all the consistency tests below, please post a comment!

The WHILE method also got a recent refactored version which is faster, but it is still slow for Platform = x86 (I could not find the reason why, until now).

The STRING method is consistently slow: it greedily allocates too much memory for nothing. Interestingly, in .NET Core, string allocation seems to be much faster than in .NET Framework. Good to know.

The IF-CHAIN method should outperform all other methods in 99.99% of the cases; and, in my personal opinion, is your best choice (considering all the adjusts necessary to make the LOG10 method work correctly, and the bad performance of the other two methods).

Finally, the results are:

Since these results are hardware-dependent, I recommend anyway running the performance tests below on your own computer if you really need to be 100% sure in your specific case.

Answer 4

不是直接C#，而是公式： n = floor(log10(x)+1)

Answer 5

Answers already here work for unsigned integers, but I have not found good solutions for getting number of digits from decimals and doubles.

public static int Length(double number)
{
    number = Math.Abs(number);
    int length = 1;
    while ((number /= 10) >= 1)
        length++;
    return length;
}
//number of digits in 0 = 1,
//number of digits in 22.1 = 2,
//number of digits in -23 = 2

You may change input type from double to decimal if precision matters, but decimal has a limit too.

Answer 6

The answer of Steve is correct , but it doesn't work for integers less than 1.

Here an updated version that does work for negatives:

int digits = n == 0 ? 1 : Math.Floor(Math.Log10(Math.Abs(n)) + 1)

Answer 7

Using recursion (sometimes asked on interviews)

public int CountDigits(int number)
{
    // In case of negative numbers
    number = Math.Abs(number);

    if (number >= 10)
        return CountDigits(number / 10) + 1;
    return 1;
 }

Answer 8

static void Main(string[] args)
{
    long blah = 20948230498204;
    Console.WriteLine(blah.ToString().Length);
}

Answer 9

将一个数字除以 10 会给你最左边的数字，然后在数字上做一个 mod 10 给出没有第一个数字的数字，然后重复这个直到你有所有的数字

Answer 10

Here's an implementation using a binary search. Looks to be the fastest so far on int32.

Int64 implementation is left as an exercise for the reader(!)

I tried using Array.BinarySearch rather than hard-coding the tree, but that was about half the speed.

EDIT: A lookup table is much faster than the binary search, at the expense of using more memory. Realistically I'd probably use the binary search one in production, the lookup table is a lot of complexity for a speed gain that's likely to be overshadowed by other parts of the software.

Lookup-Table: 439 ms
Binary-Search: 1069 ms
If-Chain: 1409 ms

NB: the last one returns zero, I want it to return 0 for values less than one but greater than -1.

Answer 14

It depends what exactly you want to do with the digits. You can iterate through the digits starting from the last to the first one like this:

int tmp = number;
int lastDigit = 0;
do
{
    lastDigit = tmp / 10;
    doSomethingWithDigit(lastDigit);
    tmp %= 10;
} while (tmp != 0);

Answer 15

Create a method that returns all digits, and another that counts them:

public static int GetNumberOfDigits(this long value)
{
    return value.GetDigits().Count();
}

public static IEnumerable<int> GetDigits(this long value)
{
    do
    {
        yield return (int)(value % 10);
        value /= 10;
    } while (value != 0);
}

This felt like the more intuitive approach to me when tackling this problem. I tried the Log10 method first due to its apparent simplicity, but it has an insane amount of corner cases and precision problems.

I also found the if -chain proposed in the other answer to a bit ugly to look at.

I know this is not the most efficient method, but it gives you the other extension to return the digits as well for other uses (you can just mark it private if you don't need to use it outside the class).

Keep in mind that it does not consider the negative sign as a digit.

Answer 16

convert into string and then you can count tatal no of digit by .length method. Like:

String numberString = "855865264".toString();
int NumLen = numberString .Length;

Answer 17

如果它只是为了验证你可以这样做： 887979789 > 99999999

Answer 18

假设您的问题指的是 int，以下内容也适用于负/正和零：

Math.Floor((decimal) Math.Abs(n)).ToString().Length
