SingleConverter Class
Assembly: System (in system.dll)
This converter can only convert a single-precision, floating point number object to and from a string. The Single value type represents a single-precision 32-bit number with values ranging from negative 3.402823e38 to positive 3.402823e38.

| You should never create an instance of SingleConverter. Instead, call the GetConverter method of TypeDescriptor. For more information, see the examples in the TypeConverter base class and How to: Implement a Type Converter. The HostProtectionAttribute attribute applied to this class has the following Resources property value: SharedState. The HostProtectionAttribute does not affect desktop applications (which are typically started by double-clicking an icon, typing a command, or entering a URL in a browser). For more information, see the HostProtectionAttribute class or SQL Server Programming and Host Protection Attributes. |
The following sample converts a variable of type Single to a string, and vice versa.
Dim s As [Single] = 3.402823E+10F Dim mySStr As String = "3.402823E+10" Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(s).ConvertTo(s, GetType(String))) Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(s).ConvertFrom(mySStr))
Single s = (Single)3.402823E+10;
String mySStr = "3.402823E+10";
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(s).ConvertTo(s,
String.class.ToType()));
Console.WriteLine(TypeDescriptor.GetConverter(s).ConvertFrom(mySStr));
