  Hi -

  I am working with floats and am wondering how I can trim the decimal
  and trailing zeros on my whole numbers.  For instance, whole numbers
  are being displayed as 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, etc...  I would like to remove
  the decimal and any trailing zeros with out effecting other non-whole
  number floats (ex. 1.375).

  Any ideas?  Help appreciated.

Maybe you can convert them to integers?

my_float = 2.0
my_float = my_float.to_i if my_float == my_float.to_i

The %g specifier to sprintf will do this automatically:

%g % 1.0
= 1

%g % 1.375
= 1.375
