    Question Significant Digits

    Hi,

    Is there any way I can display a value to a specified number of significant digits?

    Thanks

    setw() and setprecision() will help.

    Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!
    Please don't PM me for help - and no, I don't do help over instant messengers.
