Hello monks, I have a list of numbers that can be in format like:
8.8458e-119 1.06542e-52 2.68e-36 2.91405e-35 0.0190644 0.0205511 0.004
Is there something you can suggest me that I use to have some more "elegance" appearance, i.e:
8.84e-119 1.06e-52 2.68e-36 2.91e-35 0.019 0.02 0.004
? Note that I have all these number formats and I want to use a command that could apply to all of them. I tried using:
$rounded = sprintf("%.3f", $number);
, but it returns all 0 (which is natural of course)... So, can I use something else?
