Dw.s

Dw.s

Prints variables, possibly with a great range of values, lining up decimal places for values of similar magnitude

Category: Numeric

Alignment: right

Syntax

Dw.s

w

optionally specifies the width of the output field.

Default:	12
Range:	1-32

s

optionally specifies the significant digits.

The Dw.s format writes numbers so that the decimal point aligns in groups of values with similar magnitude.

The BESTw. format writes as many significant digits as possible in the output field, but if the numbers vary in magnitude, the decimal points do not line up.
Dw.s writes numbers with the desired precision and more alignment than BESTw.
The w.d format aligns decimal points, if possible, but does not necessarily show the same precision for all numbers.
