Title: How to round numbers
Post by: azambuja on September 08, 2008, 01:44:07 PM

Hello friends,

How can I make this transformation:

1.3333 to 1.33 ???

I tried to use this code:

X=Round(GetDRO(0),2)
AB=Round(X*100)/100
Call SetOEMDRO(800,AB)

but the number I got  was 1.3300.
All that I wanted was 1.33.

Thanks for any support.

Can you format your dro/s to only display two decimal places and then when it pulls the value from that DRO will it only use what is seen?

Just thinking out loud.

Hi,
To format a DRO use:

Example will format DRO 104

Code: [Select]

fscommand( "DROFmt104", "%.0f")
To format to time based:

Example will format DRO 815 and 814

Code: [Select]

fscommand( "DROFmt815", "%D:%H:%M:%S")
fscommand( "DROFmt814", "%D:%H:%M:%S")
Thanks,
Jason Blake

These are the formating parameters:

Days:Hours:Minutes:Seconds

Code: [Select]

"%D:%H:%M:%S"
(f)loating point number, (4) decimal points, (+) or -

Code: [Select]

"+%.4f"
integer, no decimals

Code: [Select]

"%i"
hex number

Code: [Select]

"%x"
Format to send the above:

fscommand( TYPE fmt DRO Number , ABOVE FORMAT )

Example:
fscommand ("DROFmt800" , "format" )
