Subject: [PATCH v3 3/5] decimal: fix string formatting on construction from double
Date: Tue,  2 Jul 2019 20:27:50 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cf5d6c60968e213091676f57706542b8270f6467.1562087728.git.sergepetrenko@tarantool.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1562087728.git.sergepetrenko@tarantool.org>

Use printf "%g" option instead of "%f" to trim traling zeros in such
cases:
decimal_from_double(1) -> '1.000000000000000' -> decimal_from_string()
Now it should be
decimal_from_double(1) -> '1' ->decimal_from_string()
