Ok, this is probably dumb but I need help with it.
So i'm reading in some data which was in string format, several
columns of data, and the data in one of the columns is getting
truncated, rounded off. I want more significant figures.
I have:
pixmag = reform(double(dbwork[1,*]))
dbwork is the original data, it has outputs such as 100.261787
pixmag, however, rounds that off to 100.26179 which is causing errors.
So how do I bump this up to 14 decimal places? Where do I put the
"D"??
thanks in advance
