in thread Decimal to Scientific notation

I'd still be inclined to write

c:\@Work\Perl>perl -wMstrict -le "printf qq{%.11e\n}, $_ for 0.99982928833, 0.99982928832; " 9.99829288330e-001 9.99829288320e-001
instead ;-)

    Update: Please forget what i wrote below. Thank you very much for your advice. The issues i mentioned have nothing to do with you.

    OK, I surrender. Perhaps not my very best day. Got ignored by LanX in the CB and then bashed by you - too much ;-)

    Best regards, Karl
