Description
Function Num2Str converts a REAL value to a string and returns the value.
Parameter decPlace has a range of -1 to 9; if -1 is specified, the value will be returned in scientific notation.
FUNCTION Num2Str(
decPlace :INTEGER;
v :REAL) : STRING;
def vs.Num2Str(decPlace, v): return STRING
Parameters
decPlace INTEGER Number of decimal places. v REAL Numeric value.
Remarks
_c_, 2015.05.23: You can also use VS:Concat to convert numbers to strings, but it uses exclusively a dot "." as symbol for the decimal marker, because it outputs the number as seen from inside VS, I suppose. See further comments on the page VS:Concat.
The parameter decPlace can be the following values:
Value | Meaning | Sample |
---|---|---|
positive | round-up the value | 10.56 -> 10.6 (1 decimal place) |
0 | round-up the value | 10.56 -> 11 |
-1 | Use scientific notation (9 decimal places) | 10.56 -> 1.056000000e+001 |
-2 | Use scientific notation (15 decimal places) | 10.56 -> 1.056000000000000e+001 |
Example

oldnumValue := 232.5148; newStrValue := Num2Str(3, oldnumValue); { --> '232.515' if your system is american } { --> '232,515' if your system is metric }
