Remove trailing zeros in decimal value with changing length

Question

I have a procedure I am doing that displays odds but the client wants only significant digits to be shown. So, 1.50 would show as \'1.5\' and 1.00 would show as \'1\'.

Answer 1

this worked for me.. round the field to 2 decimal places and then trim any trailing zeros

So that 2.10 is 2.1

SELECT trim(round(FIELDNAME,2))+0 
FROM tbl_name
....
