C# Enum Format Method
The Format method converts value of a specified enumerated type to its equivalent string representation. Here you can also set the format i.e. d for Decimal, x for HexaDecimal, etc.
We have the following enumeration.
enum Stock { PenDrive, Keyboard, Speakers };The default value gets assigned (initialize).
PenDrive = 0 Keyboard = 1 Speakers = 2
Now, let’s say you want the value of “Keyboard” name.
Stock st = Stock.Keyboard;
For that, try the following and get the constant value for Keyboard name.
Enum.Format(typeof(Stock), st, "d")
The following is the entire example.
Example
using System;
class Demo {
enum Stock { PenDrive, Keyboard, Speakers };
static void Main() {
Stock st = Stock.Keyboard;
Console.WriteLine("Product I need is {0}", st);
Console.WriteLine("Product value: {0}", Enum.Format(typeof(Stock), st, "d"));
}
}Output
Product I need is Keyboard Product value: 1
