You can use STRTRIM to convert a float to strıng, but if you want to
control the output format, you'll have to use STRTRIM(STRING(...,
format=...)), since STRTRIM doesn't accept the FORMAT keyword. Then you
can just use 0 as field width and save the call to STRTRIM.

But yes, in principle you can convert to a fixed width string, padded
with spaces, and then trim the spaces away.
