GDL: STR{2} User Precision

Lingwisyer — Wed, 08 Jun 2022 08:25:40 GMT

Hi All

Is there some other way to allow the user to set the precision as the format string does not allow parameters...?

"%[0 or more flags][field_width][.precision] conv_spec"

Does STR (numeric_expression, length, fractions) not give you what you want?

Ah. I was dealing with the Length input wrong so it was bugging out. And Fractions cannot be bigger than Length? Length being Fractions + 1 seems to work well.
