% Written by Charles Karney (Karney%PPC.MFENET@NMFECC.ARPA) 1986/04/29. % Format is a style option which allows the printing of floating point % numbers in fixed format. The argument is the counter to use. The % optional first argument if the power of ten to multiply counter by. The % default is 0. An integer is produced if power is nonnegative. % Otherwise, at least one digit appears before decimal point and exactly % -power digits after decimal point. Restriction: abs(power)<=6. % % Example: label an axis with -1.0, -0.8, -0.6, ... 1.0 % \newcounter{axis} \setcounter{axis}{-10} % \multiput(...)(...){11}{\format[-1]{axis}\addtocounter{axis}{2}} \def\format{\@ifnextchar[{\format@}{\format@[0]}} \def\format@[#1]#2{\@tempcnta#1 \@format{\@nameuse{c@#2}}} \def\@format#1{\hbox{$ \ifnum #1<0 - #1-#1\fi % Here's where to insert a + \ifnum\@tempcnta<0 \@tempcnta-\@tempcnta \@tempcnta\ifcase\@tempcnta\or 10 \or 100 \or 1000 \or 10000 \or 100000 \else 1000000 \fi \@tempcntb#1 \divide\@tempcntb \@tempcnta \number\@tempcntb . \multiply\@tempcntb \@tempcnta \advance\@tempcntb -#1 \advance\@tempcnta -\@tempcntb \expandafter\@gobble\number\@tempcnta \else \number #1 \ifcase\@tempcnta\or 0\or 00\or 000\or 0000\or 00000\else 000000\fi\fi$}}
