Re: Perl6::Form not printing 0 (zero)

Here is what I get when I change 0 to 2:

  2.0
  1.0

I can't think of a way to get it to print a 0. The Perl6::Form spec is quite dense. Either 0 intentionally has special meaning, or it could be a bug. You could submit a bug report.

I found the issue in Perl6::Form, and put in a bug report. I suggested a solution which fixes this particular problem. There's another transformation later in the code that truncates trailing zeroes from the after-the-decimal segment. I know what's doing it, I'm just not sure why. That's why both of our runs show a single zero after the decimal point when the format field specifies two decimal places.	[reply]
