What sort of format do you want? I'll guess you would like some sort of precision. "I want to numbers after the decimal point." Use printf(), like this: printf "%.2f", $t; This says, I have a floating point number that should only display 2 digits after the decimal point. Read more in perldoc printf (and perldoc sprintf, for the formatting options).
