Hi all,

Is there a way to make NSNumberFormatter work like printf's %g ?

That is, "print a double in either normal or exponential notation,
whichever is more appropriate for its magnitude."

As best as I can tell from the docs the answer in no.

I know about NSNumberFormatterScientificStyle, but it seems
unconditional.  ex: I'll get "5E0" instead of just "5".  I'd like
numbers like 5 to appear as "5" and numbers like 0.0000005 to appear as 5E-7.

Cheers,
