Convert numerical value to wide string
Returns a wstring with the representation of val.

The format used is the same that wprintf would print for the corresponding type:
type of valwprintf equivalentdescription
intL"%d"Decimal-base representation of val.
The representations of negative values are preceded with a minus sign (-).
longL"%ld"
long longL"%lld"
unsignedL"%u"Decimal-base representation of val.
unsigned longL"%lu"
unsigned long longL"%llu"
floatL"%f"As many digits are written as needed to represent the integral part, followed by the decimal-point character and six decimal digits.
inf (or infinity) is used to represent infinity.
nan (followed by an optional sequence of characters) to represent NaNs (Not-a-Number).
The representations of negative values are preceded with a minus sign (-).
doubleL"%f"
long doubleL"%Lf"

Parameters

val
Numerical value.

Return Value

A wstring object containing the representation of val as a sequence of characters.

// to_wstring example
#include <iostream>   // std::wcout
#include <string>     // std::wstring, std::to_wstring

int main ()
{
  std::wstring pi = L"pi is " + std::to_wstring(3.1415926);
  std::wstring perfect = std::to_wstring(1+2+4+7+14) + L" is a perfect number";
  std::wcout << pi << L'\n';
  std::wcout << perfect << L'\n';
  return 0;
}

Possible output:
pi is 3.141593
28 is a perfect number


Exceptions
