  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) All float specifiers (e, E, f, g, G) are treated identically by the scanf functions. When scanning floats, they always recognize all float formats. One other thing about %g on output is that it automatically strips trailing zeros, which %f (...) (15 years ago, 12-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: Santander Bank - LEGO TV ads
 
(...) Why would they? Neither of these things you describe are trademarks despite the best efforts of LEGO lawyers. The blocks could just as easily be clone brand. (15 years ago, 12-Mar-10, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
 
  Re: Santander Bank - LEGO TV ads
 
(...) Let me put it that way: Santander is a bank - I can't really see how they fail to get their legal homework done. After all, with the visibility, there's no-cost publicity for LEGO in there... (or so you'd think at least...) Regards, Jerry (15 years ago, 12-Mar-10, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
 
  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) Ahhh. I'd never heard of %g before now. I'm so used to %f and %e it had never occured to me that there might be a mixed option. Handy to know as I suspect it would be helpful in reading files of unknown format. I'm sure Delphi has some hideous (...) (15 years ago, 12-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) Actually, in C, %g does exactly this. Having said that, I think LDDP is a Delphi app, so it uses Pascal, and I don't remember how Pascal does formatting. --Travis (15 years ago, 12-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) I definitely know this. I see them far too much in my job as a numerical physicist ;) My point is that to write in mixed format (some %f and others %e) requires some strange coding unless there is a weird language which does it automatically.

  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) I mostly agree with this policy. (...) There is nothing strange in the routines, it is the standard format used to represent very large or very small numbers in a limited number of digits. Actually since values never get very large in LDraw (...) (15 years ago, 11-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) My suggestion would be to read numbers in that notation but never write them. I'm not sure why LDDP would write them that way (it would require some strange output routines) but if one thing writes them then it's best to read them. Tim (15 years ago, 11-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)

  Re: number notation in official parts
 
(...) I think it should be forbidden in official files as the benefit is very small and it is not good human readable. Benefit would be smaller filesize, as 0.0004 (6 characters) has more characters than 4E-4 (4 characters). Against could be 0.4 (3 (...) (15 years ago, 10-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) I think you just catched a really wrong version of that part. The file that is currently on the PT is fine like I already wrote above. The last change to this file has been on 07.03.2010 so the mentioned error is now gone. cu mikeheide (15 years ago, 10-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
