This method is used to convert the value of the specified Decimal to the equivalent single-precision floating-point number. This method can produce round-off errors as a single-precision floating-point number has few significant digits than a Decimal.
Syntax: public static float ToSingle (decimal d); Here, d is the decimal number which is to be converted. Return value: It returns a single-precision floating-point number equivalent to d.Example: csharp
// C# program to demonstrate the
// Decimal.ToSingle(Decimal) Method
using System;
class GFG {
// Main Method
public static void Main()
{
try {
// Taking decimal variables
Decimal dec1 = 0.0000000000134563456789M;
Decimal dec2 = 4589662514452860951234M;
// using ToSingle(Decimal) Method
float val1 = Decimal.ToSingle(dec1);
// using ToSingle(Decimal) Method
float val2 = Decimal.ToSingle(dec2);
// Printing the float value
Console.WriteLine("The float value "
+ "is : {0}", val1);
// Printing the float value
Console.WriteLine("The float value "
+ "is : {0}", val2);
}
catch (OverflowException e)
{
Console.Write("Exception Thrown: ");
Console.Write("{0}", e.GetType(), e.Message);
}
}
}
Output:
The float value is : 1.345635E-11 The float value is : 4.589663E+21Reference:
