I am sure this is easier than I am making it, but I just want to add a 
property to a class so that decimal representations get truncated at 3 
decimal digits.

My class is this:

class Measures(Model):
    __tablename__ = 'xcelera_measures'
    id = Column(Numeric, primary_key=True)
    studyidk = Column(Numeric, ForeignKey('xcel.studyidk'))
    xceleragroup = relationship("Xcelera")
    explainstring = Column(String(255))
    mrn = Column(String(255))
    value = Column(Numeric)

    __mapper_args__ = {
        "order_by": [mrn]
    }


and 'value' is the property/attribute that I want to also have a truncated 
version available in the class. 

I tried adding this to the class value_new = column_property("%.3f" % 
value())

but got an error that    

value_new = column_property("%.3f" % value)

TypeError: float argument required, not Column

I also tried this as a hybrid_property, but I don't think I was using it 
correctly.

All I want to do is have the truncated version of my attribute available in 
my class.

Thanks!
