How do I add a decimal point?

[retepsnikrep]

You can have a problem with leading zeros in the part after the decimal point, not sure if it effects PBP but it certainly effects picaxe basic.

Example

I want to display 102 as decimal with the . between 1 and 0

1.02

If you use the method suggested I expect the display will actually show

1.2 and not 1.02

It probably works correctly as long there is a number other than 0 present.

i.e.

122 would work and display 1.22

102 would not and would display 1.2 not 1.02.

Anyone care to comment.

Here is some picaxe code I use which can probably be adapted for this issue in PBP

VarC = Soc / 100			;Get first part of value (Before decimal point)
VarA = Soc // 100			;Get second part of value (After decimal point)	

serout Video,BaudT9600,(27,83,0,5,"Soc ",#VarC,".")	;Video Display 
	
if VarA < 10 then			;If Leading zero reqd in display due to Value <10 then
serout Video,BaudT9600,("0",#VarA," % ")	;Video Display
else
serout Video,BaudT9600,(#VarA," % ")	;Video Display
endif
