How to change symbol for decimal point in double.ToString()?

Question

I would like to change decimal point to another character in C#. I have a double variable value

double value;

and when I use the command:

Console.WriteLine(value.ToString()); // output is 1,25

I know I can do this:

Console.WriteLine(value.ToString(
    CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("en-GB"))); // output is 1.25

but I don't like it very much because it's very long and I need it quite often in my program.

Is there a shorter version for setting "decimal point" really as point and not comma as is in my culture is usual?

Answer 1

Some shortcut is to create a NumberFormatInfo class, set its NumberDecimalSeparator property to "." and use the class as parameter to ToString() method whenever u need it.

using System.Globalization;

NumberFormatInfo nfi = new NumberFormatInfo();
nfi.NumberDecimalSeparator = ".";

value.ToString(nfi);
