Formats a numeric value.
Syntax
format(number, width, precision);
Parameters
number The numeric value to format. width Minimum number of characters. If the number of characters in the output value is less than the specified width, blanks are added to the left or the right of the values — depending on whether the width is negative (for left alignment) or positive (for right alignment) — until the minimum width is reached. The width specification never causes a value to be truncated. precision The number of decimal places. Floating point value will be rounded accordingly.
Return Value
Formatted numeric value.
Examples
format(3.7, 7, 2) -> " 3.70" format(3.7, -7, 2) -> "3.70 " format(5.7278, 1, 2) -> "5.73" format(5.7278, 1, 0) -> "6"
