Hi,
I saw this post from 3 years ago regarding converting DOUBLE values to
CHAR in ibm DB2. Now I'm having the same problem. No real solution
was posted to that old thread. Has anyone got more information how I
avoid the scientific notation when I use the CHAR() function to
convert a DOUBLE or FLOAT ? What I want is "MagicFunct ion" in the
following pseudocode:
myVarchar = MagicFunction(1 23.0003);
print myVarchar -> outputs "123.0003"
myVarchar = MagicFunction(2 );
print myVarchar -> outputs "2"
Thanks,
Kent Lewandowski

Have you tried casting to BIGINT or the largest possible DEC?

Thank you, Dmitry.
"Blair Kenneth Adamache" <ad******@ca.ib m.com> wrote in message news:3B******** *******@ca.ibm. com... You could cast it to an int, dec or a char. Casting to a numeric value (INT or DEC) makes more sense:
db2 export to c:\tmp\chard.as c of del select substr(char(col 1),1,1) from testdoub
db2 export to c:\tmp\chari.as c of del select int(col1) from testdoub

Hi,
When I export table to text file (using db2 export command) I get scientific notation for double values like +1.180860635940 92E-006. Does anybody know how to avoid the E-006 part? I use DB2 v6.1 on Win2000.

Try decimal(float_c ol_name[,precision[,scale]]).
precision values from 1-31, scale from 0 to precision.
Simple put; precision is the column width, scale is digits to the right
of the decimal.
Have a good look at the SQL Reference, Vol 1 for information about all
of the supplied functions.

Hi there,
I am trying to write a method that accepts an array of any primitive
type and will return the same array without copying memory as an array

ie. I'd like to be able to do something like:

byte bytes = (byte) chars;

Hello,
I have a vb.net windows application that is calling an older DLL provided by

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
