When writing a matrix of type Any into a text file with writedlm/wrirecsv
leading zeros of floats are removed in the process. Julia version 0.3.3 under
win7.
On screen:
Some text 0.1234
In file:
Some text .1234
This is really strange and I can't figure out why this is happening.
I have tried
Can you post the exact code you use? There are many ways to print numbers in
Julia, and they give different representations.
The code is standard:
writecsv(C:\\Data\\test.csv, output)
writedlm has the same issue. output is a matrix of type Any with text and
numeric entries.

writecsv dispatches to print_shortest for the numerical formatting:
io=IOBuffer();
julia print_shortest(io,0.1234);
julia takebuf_string(io)
.1234
i'm not sure i would necessarily classify
