I was only use in stupid halos and the code is not really good.
Now if somebody does a pass on it we could readd it to the basis. (right now I
just put it back for the sound package - but the sound package shows it ages…
the code looks strange).
floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: places
"Answer the floatPrecision that corresponds to the given number of
decimal places"
^ places caseOf:
{[0]->[1] .
[1]->[0.1] .
[2]->[0.01] .
[3]->[0.001] .
[4]->[0.0001] .
[5]->[0.00001] .
[6]->[0.000001] .
[7]->[0.0000001] .
[8]->[0.00000001] .
[9]->[0.000000001]}
otherwise:
[(10.0 raisedTo: places negated) asFloat]
"
(0 to: 6) collect: [:i | Utilities floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: i]
(-10 to: 20) collect: [:i | Utilities floatPrecisionForDecimalPlaces: i]
"
like decimalPlaces:
valueFromContents
"Return a new value from the current contents string."
format = #symbol ifTrue: [^ lastValue].
format = #string ifTrue: [^ contents].
^ self class evaluatorClass evaluate: contents
setPrecision
"Allow the user to specify a number of decimal places. This UI is
invoked from a menu. Nowadays the precision can be set by simple
type-in, making this menu approach mostly obsolete. However, it's
still useful for read-only readouts, where type-in is not allowed."
