There's negative zero in Python and when formatting it to a string, the sign gets added:
>>> for value in [0.0, -0.0]:
... f'{value:8.6f}'
...
'0.000000'
'-0.000000'
Now I would like to have both -0.0 and 0.0 be formatted the same, without sign:
>>> for value in [0.0, -0.0]:
... if value == -0.0: value = 0.0
... f'{value:8.6f}'
...
'0.000000'
'0.000000'
Success! But my code seems a bit clunky (and I'm not sure about the performance hit), is there a better way?
