Open Office
Further to my suggestion that Engineering format be supported in the
OO spread sheet, I found this formatting code on the web - consider
incorporating it in some form....
def number_to_engineering(value, precision=3)
expof10 = ((Math.log10(value)/3.0).floor)*3
value *= 10**(-expof10)
case
when value>=1000.0 :
value /= 1000.0
expof10 +=3
when value>=100.0 : precision -= 2
when value>=10.0 : precision -= 1
end
"%.*fe%d" % [precision-1, value, expof10]
end
number_to_engineering(15000) => "15e3"
