Thread: short cut of floating point values

Have you tried it? If you had you'd find that 1.0e-6 worked just like you have it.

Code:

itsme@itsme:~/C$ cat scientific.c
#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
  float f = 4e-6;

  printf("%f\n", f);

  return 0;
}

Code:

itsme@itsme:~/C$ gcc -Wall scientific.c -o scientific
itsme@itsme:~/C$ ./scientific
0.000004
itsme@itsme:~/C$
