Decimal.Parse doesn't remove trailing zeros

Question

Please read the question before flagging as duplicate.

I found many questions on SO complaining that Decimal.Parse doesn't keep trailing zeros. But for my case Decimal.Parse(String) doesn't remove trailing zeros at all.

Decimal.Parse("3.000").ToString() ' ==> "3.000"
Double.Parse("3.000").ToString() ' ==> "3"

Am I missing something here?

Answer 1

You can achieve this using number formatting

Decimal.Parse("3.100").ToString("G")

Or with some workaround like the following:

StrDec = Decimal.Parse("3.100").ToString

If strDec.Contains(".") Then strdec = strdec.TrimEnd("0")
