FDEC$

Syntax

FDEC$ (value,length,ndp)

Location

Toolkit II, THOR XVI

This function is similar to CDEC$ except for two major differences. FDEC$ does not assume that value is an integer, and therefore uses the whole of value, although if the given ndp (number of decimal places) is less than the number of decimal places in value, value will be rounded up or down accordingly.

FDEC$ does not insert commas in the characters to the left of the decimal point.

Examples

PRINT FDEC$(100.235,6,2)

will print ‘100.24’

PRINT FDEC$(100,6,2)

will print ‘100.00’
