shamrock - good idea - that will work with generalization = * as a complete solution
Note: this is not complete - it has to handle overflow -- where the length of buffer > 20 (or whatever size)

Hi,
Can someone help me to figure out whether this code is to write file to /tmp/TIMECLOCK directory or just to asign a variable with "/tmp/TIMECLOCK/name.log_copy.pid" as the string?
I am looking into an old C program and could not figure out where in the code that creates... (1 Reply)
Hi
My requirement is to convert the following to C++
char buffer;
sprintf(buffer,"%s %-50s %6s %-6d %s\n",a.substr(0,5),a.substr(10,20))
Since the buffer is of varying length, i cannot hardcode the value as 90.
i would like to convert the buffer to string object so that it can receive any... (1 Reply)
Hello,
In perl lang, I have create a string (@str) by sprintf but unfortunately when program printed it out, only I could saw a number like 1. Certainly printf doesn't problem. How I can convert a string that are result of sprintf to a common string format??!
Thanks in advance.
PLEASE HELP ME. (2 Replies)
Hi,
I have the below sample code to hash the input number read from file. File will have 16 to 19 digit number and executable hash the number using some logic and returns the hashed value. Each digit in the 16 digit number is converted to a 4 byte value. That if the input is 16digit integer, the... (6 Replies)
I have number/strings like below
input =23412133
output = 234121330000 (depends on the number give at runtime)
i need to padd zeros based on runtime input . i tried below
printf ' %d%04d\n', "23412133";
But the precision 4 is static here how can i pass this as runtime input.
i am... (11 Replies)
I'm using cygwin bash to submit scheduled tasks (kinda like cron jobs) in windows and the following script is giving me grief. I need to format the current time with leading zeros before 10AM for the hour field. In this example, I manually typed in "09:50" instead of using the `printf...`... (2 Replies)
Hi,
Trying to join 2 files with awk (file1 has variable number of fields; file 2 has constant number of fields)
file1:

hook2|33|44
hook3|55|66
output:

double_to_decimal
floating_to_decimal(3C)floating_to_decimal(3C)NAME
floating_to_decimal, single_to_decimal, double_to_decimal, extended_to_decimal, quadruple_to_decimal - convert floating-point value to dec-
imal record
SYNOPSIS
#include <floatingpoint.h>
void single_to_decimal(single *px, decimal_mode *pm, decimal_record *pd, fp_exception_field_type *ps);
void double_to_decimal(double *px, decimal_mode *pm, decimal_record *pd, fp_exception_field_type *ps);
void extended_to_decimal(extended *px, decimal_mode *pm, decimal_record *pd, fp_exception_field_type *ps);
void quadruple_to_decimal(quadruple *px, decimal_mode *pm, decimal_record *pd, fp_exception_field_type *ps);
The floating_to_decimal functions convert the floating-point value at *px into a decimal record at *pd, observing the modes specified in
*pm and setting exceptions in *ps. If there are no IEEE exceptions, *ps will be zero.
If *px is zero, infinity, or NaN, then only pd->sign and pd->fpclass are set. Otherwise pd->exponent and pd->ds are also set so that
(sig)*(pd->ds)*10**(pd->exponent)
is a correctly rounded approximation to *px, where sig is +1 or -1, depending upon whether pd->sign is 0 or -1. pd->ds has at least one
and no more than DECIMAL_STRING_LENGTH-1 significant digits because one character is used to terminate the string with a null.
pd->ds is correctly rounded according to the IEEE rounding modes in pm->rd. *ps has fp_inexact set if the result was inexact, and has
fp_overflow set if the string result does not fit in pd->ds because of the limitation DECIMAL_STRING_LENGTH.
If pm->df == floating_form, then pd->ds always contains pm->ndigits significant digits. Thus if *px == 12.34 and pm->ndigits == 8, then
pd->ds will contain 12340000 and pd->exponent will contain -6.
If pm->df == fixed_form and pm->ndigits >= 0, then the decimal value is rounded at pm->ndigits digits to the right of the decimal point.
For example, if *px == 12.34 and pm->ndigits == 1, then pd->ds will contain 123 and pd->exponent will be set to -1.
If pm->df == fixed_form and pm->ndigits< 0, then the decimal value is rounded at -pm->ndigits digits to the left of the decimal point, and
pd->ds is padded with trailing zeros up to the decimal point. For example, if *px == 12.34 and pm->n digits == -1, then pd->ds will contain
10 and pd->exponent will be set to 0.
When pm->df == fixed_form and the value to be converted is large enough that the resulting string would contain more than DECI-
MAL_STRING_LENGTH-1 digits, then the string placed in pd->ds is limited to exactly DECIMAL_STRING_LENGTH-1 digits (by moving the place at
which the value is rounded further left if need be), pd->exponent is adjusted accordingly and the overflow flag is set in *ps.
pd->more is not used.
The econvert(3C), fconvert(3C), gconvert(3C), printf(3C), and sprintf(3C) functions all use double_to_decimal().
