Message Text

To designate where to put the numbers in the message in the editor, the following format is used:

%[flags][width][.precision]f

If you want the message to contain a % sign, then you must use a double % sign like so:

%%

Flags[edit source]

Flags is one or more of the following characters:

Character Meaning Default
- Left-align the number Right-align the number
+ Prefix the number with a + or - sign Prefix only negative numbers with a - sign
0 If width is prefixed with a 0, 0s are added until the minimum width is reached. If both 0 and – flags appear, the 0 is ignored. No padding is used
<Space> Prefix the value with a space if the output value is signed and positive. This flag is ignored if both the space and + flags appear. No space appears
# Forces the number to have a decimal point. Decimal point appears only if numbers follow it.

Width[edit source]

This is an optional number that specifies the minimum number of characters to output. This includes the sign character (+ or -) and the decimal point, if any.

Precision[edit source]

This value specifies the number of digits after the decimal point. If a decimal point appears, there is always at least one digit before it. The value is rounded to the appropriate number of digits.

The default precision is 6. If precision is 0, or if the period appears without a number following it, no decimal point is printed.
