Express a number in decimal as a fixed-length string with leading zeros.

For example, the number 7.125 could be expressed as "00007.125".

[edit] AmigaE

The function RealF can be used to convert a floating point value into a string, with a specified number of decimal digits. But to fit the string into a greater container prepending 0 we must write our own function. (The one here proposed has no a flag for the alignment of the result inside the containing string)

PROC newRealF(es, fl, digit, len=0, zeros=TRUE)
DEF s, t, i
IF (len = 0) OR (len < (digit+3))
RETURN RealF(es, fl, digit)
ELSE
s := String(len)
t := RealF(es, fl, digit)
FOR i := 0 TO len-EstrLen(t)-1 DO StrAdd(s, IF zeros THEN '0' ELSE ' ')
StrAdd(s, t)
StrCopy(es, s)
DisposeLink(s)
DisposeLink(t)
ENDIF
ENDPROC es
 
PROC main()
DEF s[100] : STRING
WriteF('\s\n', newRealF(s, 7.125, 3,9))
ENDPROC

[edit] APL

      'ZF15.9' ⎕FMT 7.125
00007.125000000

APL's ⎕FMT is similar to C's printf (only it operates on arrays).

[edit] AWK

BEGIN {
r=7.125
printf " %9.3f\n",-r
printf " %9.3f\n",r
printf " %-9.3f\n",r
printf " %09.3f\n",-r
printf " %09.3f\n",r
printf " %-09.3f\n",r
}

Same output as the C code.

[edit] C#

 
class Program

float myNumbers = 7.125F;
 
string strnumber = Convert.ToString(myNumbers);
 
Console.WriteLine(strnumber.PadLeft(9, '0'));
 
Console.ReadLine();
}
 
 
 
 
}
 

[edit] C

#include <stdio.h>
main(){
float r=7.125;
printf(" %9.3f\n",-r);
printf(" %9.3f\n",r);
printf(" %-9.3f\n",r);
printf(" %09.3f\n",-r);
printf(" %09.3f\n",r);
printf(" %-09.3f\n",r);
return 0;
}

Output:

   -7.125
    7.125
7.125    
-0007.125
00007.125
7.125  

[edit] C++

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

std::cout << std::setfill('0') << std::setw(9) << std::fixed << std::setprecision(3) << 7.125 << std::endl;

[edit] Clojure

Translation of: Common Lisp Using cl format strings

(cl-format true "~9,3,,,'0F" 7.125)

Translation of: java Using java format strings

(printf "%09.3f" 7.125) ; format works the same way (without side the effect of printing)

[edit] Common Lisp

(format t "~9,3,,,'0F" 7.125)

[edit] Forth

Forth has a rather rich set of number formatting words, which makes formatted output very flexible but sometime cumbersome.

Here one way to generate the required output. Note that the number generated is NOT truncated to the field width. If you wish to truncate the number, remove #s and 1- from the definition. (The 1- is necessary because #s always generates at least one digit, even if it's zero.)

\ format 'n' digits of the double word 'd'
: #n ( d n -- d ) 0 ?do # loop ;
 
\ ud.0 prints an unsigned double
: ud.0 ( d n -- ) <# 1- #n #s #> type ;
 
\ d.0 prints a signed double
: d.0 ( d n -- ) >r tuck dabs <# r> 1- #n #s rot sign #> type ;

Usage example:

Type:    123 s>d  8 ud.0
Result: 00000123 ok
Type: -123 s>d 8 d.0
Result: -00000123 ok

[edit] Fortran

Works with: Fortran version 90 and later Using standard data edit descriptors it is only possible to precede Integer data with leading zeros.

INTEGER :: number = 7125
WRITE(*,"(I8.8)") number ! Prints 00007125

[edit] gnuplot

print sprintf("%09.3f", 7.125)

[edit] Haskell

import Text.Printf
main =
printf "%09.3f" 7.125

[edit] IDL

n = 7.125
print, n, format='(f08.3)'
;==> 0007.125

[edit] J

   'r<0>9.3' (8!:2) 7.125
00007.125

[edit] Java

Works with: Java version 1.5+ Stealing printf from C/C++:

public class Printing{
public static void main(String[] args){
double printer = 7.125;
System.out.printf("%09.3f",printer);//System.out.format works the same way
}
}

[edit] JavaScript

var n = 123;
var str = ("00000" + n).slice(-5);
alert(str);

or, put in browser URL: javascript:n=123;alert(("00000"+n).slice(-5));

Also, a 60-line implementation of sprintf can be found here.

[edit] Logo

Various collection functions, such as MAP and FILTER, will work on individual characters of a string when given a word instead of a list.

to zpad :num :width :precision
output map [ifelse ? = "| | ["0] [?]] form :num :width :precision
end
print zpad 7.125 9 3  ; 00007.125

Works with: UCB Logo As a debugging feature, you can drop down to C language printf formatting by giving -1 for the width and a format string for the precision.

print form 7.125 -1 "|%09.3f|    ; 00007.125

[edit] Lua

function digits(n) return math.floor(math.log(n) / math.log(10))+1 end
function fixedprint(num, digs) --digs = number of digits before decimal point
for i = 1, digs - digits(num) do
io.write"0"
end
print(num)
end
 
fixedprint(7.125, 5) --> 00007.125

[edit] Modula-3

Modules IO and Fmt must be imported before use.

IO.Put(Fmt.Pad("7.125\n", length := 10, padChar := '0'));

[edit] Oberon-2

Module Out must be imported before use.

Out.Real(7.125, 9, 0);

[edit] Objective-C

NSLog(@"%09.3f", 7.125);

or

NSLog(@"%@", [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%09.3f", 7.125]);

[edit] OCaml

Printf.printf "%09.3f\n" 7.125

[edit] Oz

It is possible to set the precision used for float printing (where "precision" means the total number of digits used).

It doesn't seem to be possible to use leading zeros for printing, so we implement this manually:

declare
fun {PrintFloat X Prec}
{Property.put 'print.floatPrecision' Prec}
S = {Float.toString X}
in
{Append
for I in 1..Prec-{Length S}+1 collect:C do {C &0} end
S}
end
in
{System.showInfo {PrintFloat 7.125 8}}

[edit] Perl

Works with: Perl version 5.x

printf " %09.3f\n", 7.125;

[edit] PHP

echo str_pad(7.125, 9, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);

or

printf("%09.3f\n", 7.125);

[edit] PicoLisp

(pad 9 (format 7125 3))
(pad 9 (format 7125 3 ",")) # European format

[edit] PL/I

 
put edit (X) (p'999999.V999'); /* Western format. */
 
put edit (X) (p'999999,V999'); /* In European format. */
 
 

[edit] Pop11

The task is underspecified, so we present a few alternatives.

;;; field of length 12, 3 digits after decimal place
format_print('~12,3,0,`*,`0F', [1299.19]);
;;; prints "00001299.190"
format_print('~12,3,0,`*,`0F', [100000000000000000]);
;;; Since the number does not fit into the field prints "************"
;;; that is stars instead of the number
format_print('~12,3,0,`*,`0F', [-1299.19]);
;;; prints "000-1299.190"
;;; that is _leading zeros_ before sign
 
format_print('~3,1,12,`0:$', [1299.19]);
;;; prints "00001299.190"
format_print('~3,1,12,`0:$', [-1299.19]);
;;; prints "-0001299.190"
;;; that is sign before leading zeros
format_print('~3,1,12,`0:$', [100000000000000000]);
;;; prints "100000000000000000.000"
;;; that is uses more space if the number does not fit into
;;; fixed width

[edit] PowerShell

Using the -f formatting operator and a custom format string:

"{0,9:00000.000}" -f 7.125

[edit] Python

Works with: Python version 2.5 Python has 3 different floating point formatting methods: "%e","%f" & "%g". The "%g" format is a beautified hybrid of "%e" and "%f". There is no way of specifying how many digits appear in the exponent when printed with a format.

from math import pi, exp
r = exp(pi)-pi
print r
print "e=%e f=%f g=%g G=%G s=%s r=%r!"%(r,r,r,r,r,r)
print "e=%9.4e f=%9.4f g=%9.4g!"%(-r,-r,-r)
print "e=%9.4e f=%9.4f g=%9.4g!"%(r,r,r)
print "e=%-9.4e f=%-9.4f g=%-9.4g!"%(r,r,r)
