The task seemed very simple. But I'm stuck.
I want to:
1234567890123.0 to "1234567890123"
1.23 to "1.23"
1.234567 to "1.2346".
With format string "%.4f" i get "1.2300" for 1.23.
With "%g" i get "1.23456789e+12" for "1234567890123.0".
I can not believe that it is not implemented. What did I miss?
I think you are asking for trouble to do this. Floating point is not
exact, so for example, if I do
writefln("%.15f", 123456.789123);
I get:
123456.789122999995016
How far do you want to go before you determine there will only be zeros?
It could be infinity.
I'd say your best bet is to format to the max level you want, e.g. "%.6f"
Then trim off any trailing zeros (and decimal point if necessary) after
conversion to a string.
