Varkon MBS Programmers manual
Converts a float to a string with optional formatting and writes the result to an open file or pipe.
outflt(f, x, width, precision); file f; float x; int width; int presicion;
| f | - The name of a filevariable associated with a file open for write, append or update (W, A or U) |
| x | - The float to write |
| width | - Controls the amount of padding. If width is less than the actual space required no padding |
| is performed. If width is larger than the space required the result is padded with blanks. | |
| The sign of width controls weather padding is done on the left side of the result (+) or the | |
| right side (-). If not specified, width is set to zero = no padding. | |
| precision | - Controls the number of decimal places. A value of -1 gives E-notation. |
outflt(f, 12345.0) => "12345" outflt(f, 12345.0, 10) => " 12345" outflt(f, 12345.0, -10) => "12345 " outflt(f, 12345.0, -10, 2) => "12345.00 " outflt(f, 12345.0, 10, -1) => " 1.2345e+04"
