Display unsigned value (battery voltage) = 8134 formatted with a decimal point: 8.134

[Johnbohn]

How can I display an unsigned value such as 8134 with an "implied" decimal point e.g. 8.134 without dividing by 1000? Is there a format code that will do this? I have Student Version 8.2.1. Many thanks

If you just want to display it, you can convert it into a string, separate the first character and the remainder, insert a period after the first character and then insert the remainder of the string.

It seems silly to force such an arbitrary restriction. A division is cheap, why son't you want to do it??? 😮

Of course you could assign a unit such as V and then set the units to kV for the display. 🙂

I would go with the division!

Of course, you can also make an Xcontrol.

I doubt that XControls are supported on teh Lego platform

LOL, I only saw "I have Student Version 8.2.1" and guessed the post was possibly in the wrong forum. 🙂
