Re: st: Padding zeros, writing functions
Ari asked:
1) Is there a good padding function already written?
-----------------------------------------------------------
Look here:
input ncode
1
15
387
end
tostring ncode , generate(scode) format(%03.0f)
list
+---------------+
| ncode scode |
|---------------|
1. | 1 001 |
2. | 15 015 |
3. | 387 387 |
+---------------+
Hope this helps
