title: Decimal.Parse throws a FormatException
body: <p>I tried to use the decimal.parse  as described at : 
  <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cafs243z%28v=vs.110%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cafs243z(v=vs.110).aspx</a> </p>
  
  <p>So i copied from this page the following example: </p>
  
  <pre><code>   string value;
     decimal number;
     value = "1.62345e-02";
     try
     {
         number = Decimal.Parse(value);
         Console.WriteLine("'{0}' converted to {1}.", value, number);
     }
     catch (FormatException)
     {
         Console.WriteLine("Unable to parse '{0}'.", value);
     }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And i got a FormatException, 
  Do you have an idea why it's happened?</p>
  
  <p>thanks, 
  eyal</p>
