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 following table represents the list of format specifiers available in visual basic:

Format specifierDescription
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.

F or f

Dijkstra's Algorithm (part 1).  Consider the network shown below, and Dijkstra’s link-state algorithm. Here, we are interested in computing the least cost path from node E (note: the start node here is E) to all other nodes using Dijkstra's algorithm. Using the algorithm statement used in the textbook and its visual representation, complete the "Step 0" row in the table below showing the link state algorithm’s execution by matching the table entries (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) with their values.  Write down your final [correct] answer, as you‘ll need it for the next question.
