Chapter 3, Problem 1MQ6
Program Plan Intro
ToString Method:
The method ToString() is used to convert the number to string. All the numeric data types use ToString() method for this conversion. This method allows the user to format the value such as specifying the decimal places and adding special characters to the string which is to be displayed.
The ToString() methods formats the copy of value present in the numeric variable and then returns the result as string value.
Syntax:
numericVariableName.ToString(formatString)
- The numericVariableName is the variable name.
- The parameter formatString is used to format the variable’s value.
- The formatString string should be in the form of “Axx”.
- “A” represents the build format specifier and “xx” specifies the precision of the digits.
- The format specifier can be in upper case letter or lower case letter.
- The formatString string should be in the form of “Axx”.
The following table represents the list of format specifiers available in visual basic:
Format specifier | Description |
C or c (Currency) | It displays the string with dollar sign and included with a thousand separators. Negative values enclosed with parentheses. |
N or n (Number) | It displays the string with a thousand separators but not include a dollar sign. Negative values preceded by minus sign. |

- Scenario You work for a small company that exports artisan chocolate. Although you measure your products in kilograms, you often get orders in both pounds and ounces. You have decided that rather than have to look up conversions all the time, you could use Python code to take inputs to make conversions between the different units of measurement. You will write three blocks of code. The first will convert kilograms to pounds and ounces. The second will convert pounds to kilograms and ounces. The third will convert ounces to kilograms and pounds. The conversions are as follows: 1 kilogram = 35.274 ounces 1 kilogram = 2.20462 pounds 1 pound = 0.453592 kilograms 1 pound = 16 ounces 1 ounce = 0.0283 kilograms 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds For the purposes of this activity the template for a function has been provided.
