Localization in Chart (Microsoft Chart Control), Localizing DataPoint

I had a scenario where need to localize the data points that are displayed on the chart, that the decimal needs to be localized as comma (,) in Russian and Spanish., Thanks to my friend Gagan for this
E.g.:

We can assign an EventHandler to FormatNumber Property as Below

private MemoryStream RenderGraph()
{
Chart barchart = new Chart();
//many number codes are removed
//Removed other formatting lines
barchart.FormatNumber += new EventHandler<FormatNumberEventArgs>(ConvertChartDecimalFormat);
            barchart.DataSource = dt;   
barchart.Series[0].XValueMember = "XProp";
            barchart.Series[0].YValueMembers = "YProp";
            barchart.DataBind();

//return the memory stream image
}

Followed the event method will look as below. 
void ConvertChartDecimalFormat(object sender, FormatNumberEventArgs e)
{
if (sender.GetType() == typeof(DataPoint))
       {
                try
                {
                    e.LocalizedValue = Double.Parse(e.LocalizedValue).ToString(currentCulture);
                }
                catch (Exception)
                {
                    //do if anything required.
                }
        }

}




Enjoy.!!! :-)

Beyond Solo Assistants: Google's Vision for AI Teamwork (Agent-to-Agent Collaboration)

We talk a lot about AI assistants like Google Assistant or chatbots answering our questions. They're pretty smart on their own, right? But imagine if they could team up, combine their unique skills, and tackle really complex problems together, just like a human team does. That's the core idea behind a super exciting area Google and others in the AI world are exploring: Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication and collaboration. Think of it less as a single product called "Agent2Agent" and more as the science and engineering of building AI teams. Ready to explore why this is such a big deal? Let's break it down! First Off: What Even is an AI Agent? Think of an AI agent as a specialized digital helper. It's a piece of software designed to: Perceive: Understand its environment (text, images, data, user requests). Reason: Figure out the best course of action based on its goals and knowledge. Act: Perform tasks (answer questions, writ...

Observer Pattern With C# 4.0

Observer Pattern "The Observer Pattern Defines a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all of its dependents are notified and updated automatically." Publishers + Subscribers = Observer Pattern C# Introduced , IObserver<T> and IObservable<T> which will help push-based notification,also known as the observer design pattern. The IObservable<T> interface represents the class that sends notifications (the provider); the IObserver<T> interface represents the class that receives them (the observer). T represents the class that provides the notification information. An IObserver<T> implementation arranges to receive notifications from a provider (an IObservable<T> implementation) by passing an instance of itself to the provider's IObservable<T>.Subscribe method. This method returns an IDisposable object that can be used to unsubscribe the observer before the provider finishes sending...

DD4TFormRouteHandler (posting a form as tridion page url)

ASP.NET routing enables us to use URLs that are not physical files, In DD4T we have the default page route definition. In which all page request redirct to Page controller and process the page. DD4TFormRouteHandler is a custom route handler responsible for mapping incoming browser requests to particular MVC controller actions, this works along with  DD4TFormHelper  (that generate the route information for the form) Posting a form in DD4T is not complicated, you can create the mvc form as a normal controller and action, then post it via AJAX. But, when we need to do post the form as normal page, It would need a tweak as the controller/action is not a page existed in tridion. This can be achieved by implementing a custom Mvc RoutHandler and reroute the posted form to the encrypted action and controller. It works as below daigram. So, how to do this. to render out the form we have BeginDD4TForm html helper as below that generate the form with encrypted route values....
