what's the meaning?

[vinnie]

I'm writing my first project in C#, and i have before a line that i
don;t really understand, while the notes i'm using do give any useful
info.

If someone would help, i would really appreciate.

This little project just converts the US value in Yen.

The line is this:

decimal amount = Decimal.Parse(US.Value)

What i don't understand is the difference between the "decimal" and
"Decimal", and the Parse() method used.

Thanks a lot

decimal and Decimal are the same - C# just has shorthand versions for a
few types. In a similar way, int means the same as System.Int32.

and the Parse() method used.

Have a look at the documentation for Decimal.Parse and you'll see what
it does.
