number-formatting

Tick labels for ticks bigger than about 10'000, get formatted to 1x10^4 for example. Whereas the exponential part appears above the corresponding axes. This misbehavior has been well described on on matlab central as well, but without a solution. Thanks for your help. The 'quick trick' set(gca, 'YTickLabel',get(gca,'YTick')) did not work when applied to bar3, as can be seen on the following figure. One way to get better control over tick labels, and to avoid the exponential formatting, is to use TICK2TEXT from the File Exchange. Here's an example: y = cool(7); %# define some data ah = axes; %#

In my application I want to input numbers (amounts) to a specific limit, and hence have used JFormattedTextField. Limit like "12345678.99" i.e. 8 digits before "." and 2 after "." or so on. This is my implementation code, but it doesn't result as expected. startBalTxt.setFormatterFactory(new javax.swing.text.DefaultFormatterFactory(new javax.swing.text.NumberFormatter(new java.text.DecimalFormat("########.##")))); startBalTxt.setText(resourceMap.getString("startBalTxt.text")); // NOI18N startBalTxt.setFont(Utility.getTextFont()); startBalTxt.setName("startBalTxt"); // NOI18N INPUT RESULT

Given a locale java.text.NumberFormat: NumberFormat numberFormat = NumberFormat.getInstance(); How can I get the character used as Decimal separator (if it's a comma or a point) in that numberformat? How can I modify this property without having to use new DecimalFormat(format)? Thanks The helper class DecimalFomatSymbols is what you are looking for: DecimalFormat format=DecimalFormat.getInstance(); DecimalFormatSymbols symbols=format.getDecimalFormatSymbols(); char sep=symbols.getDecimalSeparator(); To set you symbols as needed: //create a new instance DecimalFormatSymbols custom=new

There are way too many questions and answers about this basic functionality, I cannot see the wood for the trees. In Java there is only one simple answer ( java.text.NumberFormat and its subclasses) so I'm sure the majority of plugins, questions and answers will mature eventually to a de-facto standard for JQuery. This plugin is the best I found so far, but I don't know if it's still developed, is mature etc. http://plugins.jquery.com/project/numberformatter Is there a better solution? Is it mature / active enough to rely on? Edit: I would like to be able to format currencies, decimal,

This is what I have right now: $("#number").val(parseFloat($("#number").val()).toFixed(2)); It looks messy to me. I don't think I'm chaining the functions correctly. Do I have to call it for each textbox, or can I create a separate function? If you're doing this to several fields, or doing it quite often, then perhaps a plugin is the answer. Here's the beginnings of a jQuery plugin that formats the value of a field to two decimal places. It is triggered by the onchange event of the field. You may want something different. <script type="text/javascript"> // mini jQuery plugin that formats to

I have a series of CSV files where numbers are formatted in the european style using commas instead of decimal points, i.e. 0,5 instead of 0.5 . There are too many of these files to edit them before importing to R. I was hoping there is an easy parameter for the read.csv() function, or a method to apply to the extracted dataset in order for R to treat the data as a number rather than a string. When you check ?read.table you will probably find all the answer that you need. There are two issues with (continental) European csv files: What does the c in csv stand for? For standard csv this is a ,
