Program Plan Intro
TryParse Method:
The TryParse method helps to avoid the exception when the user enters invalid inputs.
- This method helps to identify a string value which can be converted to specific data type before it is converted to that data type.
- There are so many TryParse methods in .NET. Some of the methods are given below:
- int.TryParse method is used to convert the string into integer data type.
- double.TryParse method is used to convert the string into double data type.
- decimal.TryParse method is used to convert the string into decimal data type.
- The general format for TryParse method is given below:
datatype.TryParse(string, out targetVariable)
Where,
- “datatype” indicates the data type such as “int”, “double”, and “decimal”.
- “string” indicates the string which need to convert.
- “targetVariable” indicates the name of data type variable which stores the converted value.
- “out” indicates the output variable.
- This method helps to convert the “string” into specific data type.
- If the conversion is successful, then store the converted value in “targetVariable” and the method returns the Boolean value “true” for successful conversion.
- If the conversion is not successful, then it does not throw an exception instead it stores the value “0” in “targetVariable” and the method returns the Boolean value “false” for conversion failure.

The application should be designed with checkboxes to select the various services (such as office call, vaccination, grooming, etc). As each service is selected, the charge for the service should display in an associated label. (When the checkmark is removed, the amount should be removed). As each selection is made, the charges should be added into the total (a variable… consider scope), and displayed in a Total Due area on the application (currency format). Align all numeric data appropriately. Consider what should happen when the checkmark is removed. Include at least 8 services that your pet clinic performs. Include a Clear and Exit button. The clear should clear all checkboxes, appropriate labels, and the total variable. Use the standard Microsoft naming conventions for all controls. Include appropriate comments in your code.
