Disable scientific notation in floating point numbers

[Pastafarianist]

Hello everyone. Perhaps a newbie's question, but I couldn't find any answer.

As can be easily seen in the workshop, numeric.prettyPrint renders floating point numbers in the scientific notation. For example, 0.0000001 is rendered as 1e-7. While often useful, this makes it hard to compare directly several floating point numbers visually. Is there a simple way to disable such behavior?

There' snow way to change this but you can always do your own manual conversion to string.

Thanks,

S
