Determine is String is Number C#

Deltermine is String is Number C#

Every type has Parse and TryParse methods to convert from String to Appropriate type.

Parse Method gives exception object,user can inspect exception details

TryParse method gives success means  string is converted to appropriate type, No Exception object here.

        public static void Main()

        {
