C# / Asp.Net - Some string format...

DateTime Format:
yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss.fffffff ==> 2007-06-10T13:52:55

String format for bits:
int[] values = { 0, 0x111, 0xfffff, 0x8888, 0x22000022};
foreach (int v in values)
{
Console.WriteLine("~0x{0:x8} = 0x{1:x8}", v, ~v);
}
Output:
~0x00000000 = 0xffffffff
~0x00000111 = 0xfffffeee
~0x000fffff = 0xfff00000
~0x00008888 = 0xffff7777
~0x22000022 = 0xddffffdd

String format for double:
// just two decimal places
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4567); // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.4); // "123.40"
String.Format("{0:0.00}", 123.0); // "123.00"

// max. two decimal places
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.4567); // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.4); // "123.4"
String.Format("{0:0.##}", 123.0); // "123"

// at least two digits before decimal point
String.Format("{0:00.0}", 123.4567); // "123.5"
String.Format("{0:00.0}", 23.4567); // "23.5"
String.Format("{0:00.0}", 3.4567); // "03.5"
String.Format("{0:00.0}", -3.4567); // "-03.5"

// Thousands separator
String.Format("{0:0,0.0}", 12345.67); // "12,345.7"
String.Format("{0:0,0}", 12345.67); // "12,346"

// formatted a zero (of double type)
String.Format("{0:0.0}", 0.0); // "0.0"
String.Format("{0:0.#}", 0.0); // "0"
String.Format("{0:#.0}", 0.0); // ".0"
String.Format("{0:#.#}", 0.0); // ""

// Align numbers with spaces
String.Format("{0,10:0.0}", 123.4567); // " 123.5"
String.Format("{0,-10:0.0}", 123.4567); // "123.5 "
String.Format("{0,10:0.0}", -123.4567); // " -123.5"
String.Format("{0,-10:0.0}", -123.4567); // "-123.5 "

// Custom formatting for negative numbers and zero
String.Format("{0:0.00;minus 0.00;zero}", 123.4567); // "123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.00;minus 0.00;zero}", -123.4567); // "minus 123.46"
String.Format("{0:0.00;minus 0.00;zero}", 0.0); // "zero"

// Other
String.Format("{0:my number is 0.0}", 12.3); // "my number is 12.3"
String.Format("{0:0aaa.bbb0}", 12.3); // "12aaa.bbb3"

Bits and bitwise operation in C#

Here is an example for bits string format and bitwise opertaion (not).
It helps us to print the number as bit representation.

Example (using console application):

using System;
class MainClass
{
static void Main()
{
int[] values = { 0, 0x111, 0xfffff, 0x8888, 0x22000022};
foreach (int v in values)
{
Console.WriteLine("~0x{0:x8} = 0x{1:x8}", v, ~v);
}
}
}

Output:

~0x00000000 = 0xffffffff
~0x00000111 = 0xfffffeee
~0x000fffff = 0xfff00000
~0x00008888 = 0xffff7777
~0x22000022 = 0xddffffdd

Helpful for "bits users" which deal with common bit operations...
