| 14:17 |  | aditsu | is there a DecimalFormat that behaves like Double.toString? |

| 15:27 |  | pdurbin | How does it behave? I should upgrade to Java 9 so I can have a REPL. | 
        
| 17:07 |  | aditsu | pdurbin: e.g. 1 -> "1.0", 1e50 -> "1.0e50" | 
        
| 17:10 |  | aditsu | scala has a REPL | 
        
| 17:12 |  | aditsu | pdurbin: there's also http://www.javarepl.com | 
        
| 17:16 |  | pdurbin | "###.##" according to https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/i18n/format/decimalFormat.html I guess. "123456.79" as output | 
        
| 17:18 |  | aditsu | "###.##" gives "1" and "100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000" | 
        
| 17:18 |  | aditsu | just like toString.. except totally different :p | 
        
| 17:19 |  | aditsu | also, 123456.789 is supposed to come out as "123456.789" | 
        
| 17:23 |  | pdurbin | hmm, if you figure it out, please let us know | 
        
| 17:23 |  | aditsu | so far, it looks like it doesn't exist, which is weird and sucks | 
        
| 17:24 |  | pdurbin | time to ask on Stack Overflow, I guess | 
        
| 17:25 |  | aditsu | oh yeah, I forgot about that.. |

| 17:53 |  | pdurbin | looks good | 
        
| 17:54 |  | * pdurbin | votes it up | 
        
| 18:53 |  | pdurbin | aditsu: is it using `FloatingDecimal.toJavaFormatString`? See http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/jdk/file/d5a00b1e8f78/src/share/classes/java/lang/Double.java#l203 | 
        
| 18:55 |  | aditsu | you mean toString? yes, that's internal implementation details.. | 
        
| 18:55 |  | aditsu | not part of the public API | 
        
| 18:56 |  | pdurbin | sure, but it would give you what you want, I would think | 
        
| 18:57 |  | aditsu | if it had a format pattern, maybe | 
        
| 18:59 |  | pdurbin | yeah, that's what I was hoping I'd find inside. no such luck |

| 20:53 |  | aditsu | I answered my own question.. |

| 22:40 |  | pdurbin | Cool. Pretty complex answer. I guess you should accept your own answer, if you can. |
