See thread "convert string to int" on 12/10/2003 in this ng.

Yes. Its right there, just cut and paste the functions into your class or
global class and make them static methods. This is better then regex as you
can check it and convert it in same method.

Is there a test in C# so I can test if a value is numeric?

string test = "123"

if (is??

So if I got the gist of the thread the quickest way is to build a function ,
like you did to check each character in the string, correct?


Thanks

No. double.TryParse or Regex are by far the two most flexible options
available.

Yes, but that's not what was stated. What was stated is that the
*quickest* way is to build a function to check each character in the
string - and that is indeed quicker (in execution time, not in
development time).
