In Dart, value.toString() returns "-12.000123456".
In C#, value.ToString() returns "-12.000123456".
In D, value.to!string() returns "-12.0001" :(
How can I convert a double value -12.000123456 to its string
value "-12.000123456", i.e. without loosing double-precision
digits ?
Specify how many digits you want with writefln:
writefln("%.8f", value);
Actually, what I need is the D equivalent of the default
ToString() function we have in Dart and C#.
I mean a dumb double-to-string standard library conversion
function which returns a string including all the double
precision digits stored in the 52 significant bits of the value,
preferably with the trailing zeroes removed.
For an unknown reason, D's default double-to-string conversion
function only expose the single-precision significant digits :(
