I have a float number that displays with a certain number of decimal places after it no matter what, even if it is a round number. How do I format it so that it only displays significant figures with no trailing zeros.

  • @yan you are absolutely right. – IKKA Jul 23 '13 at 05:49
  • @Yan Those answers all require you to know the number of digits. This question asks for significant digits, which could be "1.25" or "5" or "7.32816". – Nerrolken Aug 05 '15 at 17:53
  • Can't you use @Yan 's suggestion, after you have checked for non zero figures? – alasker Dec 01 '15 at 19:27
