Hello everybody,
I have been learning haskell lately and I am trying to write a program that 
at some point displays a float number to the screen.
The function I used to accomplish this was show :

putStr (show myFloat)

The problem is that show was displaying the number in scientific format, 
like 1.5e-2 while I wanted it to show like 0.015 and also control the 
number of decimal points.
After some search I found the function showGFloat but I can't use it the 
way i used show because it returns (String -> String) and not String. I 
can't seem to understand this ShowS type.
Could someone please help me with this by giving an example of how to 
display a float?
Thanks in advance

Andreas Kalivas
