    Do decimal mathematics in Razor email template

    Hi everyone,

    I have a Razor email template, and I would like to do simple mathematics in this code, e.g. amount1 + amount2, or amount1 * amount2.

    I tried this:

    @{
    string am1 = (string)Model.DynamicFields.amount1;
    string am2 = (string)Model.DynamicFields.amount2;
    int a1 = am1.AsInt();
    int a2 = am2.AsInt();
    var sum = (a1+a2);
    var product = (a1*a2);
    var division = (a1/a2);
    <H1>@sum</H1>
    <H1>@product</H1>
    <H1>@division</H1>
}

    This basically works, however only for integers. How would I do this with decimals?

    Best, Simeon

    You would need to convert the string to a decimal

    Hi Huw,

    Thank you! I got it working with

    @{

    string am1 = (string)Model.DynamicFields.amount1;
    string am2 = (string)Model.DynamicFields.amount2;
    var a1 = Convert.ToDecimal(am1);
    var a2 = Convert.ToDecimal(am2);
    var sum = (a1+a2);
    var product = (a1*a2);
    var division = (a1/a2);
    <H1>@sum</H1>
    <H1>@product</H1>
    <H1>@division</H1>
}

    Best, Simeon
