title: How to parse from String to Float in C#?
body: <p>This issue should be very simple but I can't find the way to make it work. I have the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>string yeah = "0.5";
  float yeahFloat = float.Parse(yeah);
  MessageBox.Show(yeahFloat.ToString());
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But the MessageBox shows "5" instead of "0.5". How can I resolve this using float?</p>
