Decimal.ToInt32 Method

Converts the value of the specified Decimal to the equivalent 32-bit signed integer.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
public static int ToInt32(
	decimal d
)

Parameters

d
Type: System.Decimal
The decimal number to convert.

Return Value

Type: System.Int32
A 32-bit signed integer equivalent to the value of d.
Exception Condition
OverflowException

d is less than Int32.MinValue or greater than Int32.MaxValue.

The return value is the integral part of the decimal value; fractional digits are truncated.

The following code example converts Decimal numbers to Int32 values using the ToInt32 method.


// Example of the decimal.ToInt32 and decimal.ToUInt32 methods.
using System;

class DecimalToU_Int32Demo
{
    const string formatter = "{0,17}{1,19}{2,19}";

    // Get the exception type name; remove the namespace prefix.
    public static string GetExceptionType( Exception ex )
    {
        string exceptionType = ex.GetType( ).ToString( );
        return exceptionType.Substring( 
            exceptionType.LastIndexOf( '.' ) + 1 );
    }

    // Convert the decimal argument; catch exceptions that are thrown.
    public static void DecimalToU_Int32( decimal argument )
    {
        object Int32Value;
        object UInt32Value;

        // Convert the argument to an int value.
        try
        {
            Int32Value = decimal.ToInt32( argument );
        }

        {
