Hi John,

What about the function sprintf ?
I think you can use something like
my $decimale = 10.2345678879;

The number sprintf("%.6f", $decimale) is what you are look for, isn't?

I did this test

my $number = 10.5432634657656;

my $result = 0;

$result = sprintf("%.6f", $number);

print "$result";

Cheers,

 I'm trying to truncate a number, 10.25233006477356, to 6 decimal points.
E.g. 10.252330.

I don't need to round the number, I just want it to drop everything after
the 6th decimal point. This should be easy, but I'm drawing a blank.

Thanks
