You haven't been using printf correctly. Try

    foreach (qw(
            1000.000
            10.0000000
            100.0000000
            10000.0000000))

    {
        printf "%13.6f\n", $_;
    }

The %13.6 gives a total field width of 13 and 6 decimal places. Same as C. The
default is to right-justify within the field.

HTH,

Rob
