Greetings,

I'm currently 'doodling' with REBOL/Core [after all, what else would one be
doing over this Holiday Season ;) ?], and am somewhat perplexed by the
seeming lack of a floating point rounding / formatting function, something
along the lines of Scheme's 'format', or C's 'printf' function.

I've quickly searched through the website [rebol.com] documentation and
[using keywords like 'printf', 'format', 'round' etc], and it would appear
that there is no such thing. I'm also currently working through the REBOL
Essentials PDF, and no relevant examples [of floating point formatting]
appear.

So, my query is: is there such a beast ? Or is it something for which it is
necessary to either cobble together a custom routine [it is, of course,
always possible to do this, but I'm hoping to find out whether it is
actually necessary], or interface to an external library ?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

Anthony Borla
