.NET Framework - Number formmating

I want to format a number with only one decimal place.

This is OK

PS > $number = 0.123
PS > [string]::format("{0:0.0}",$number)
0.1


If $number equels to 0.0 I want to return just 0.

Can it be done with .NET formattings (without if statment)?

Shay,

use # instead of 0 e.g (43343.0).ToString("#.##"); returns just 43343

I meant 0.#, #.# will return an empty string for 0.0

I think

[string]::format("{0:0.#}",$number)

should do it
