Hi all,
did someone know what here is going on.
IDL> d = 98046763.617D
IDL> s = string(d)
IDL> PRINT,s
98046764.
IDL> HELP,s
S STRING = ' 98046764.'
Where are the digits ????
Or does it mean I have first to determine the Format of the number and I
have to use this information to get the right number.
IDL> s = string(d,format='(F12.3)')
IDL> PRINT,s
98046763.617
This goes right. But my feeling is this is terrible. Because I bet noone
takes care on this. What's your feeling?
regards
Reimar
