Converting e-07 to decimals

[varghese alex]

Hi;

Could someone help how to convert a tensor 

C=[6.5522e-01  3.4683e-05  3.4471e-01  3.0375e-05  4.6763e-07] to its equivalent decimal format?

Regards

Hi,

It’s essentially a scientific notation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_notation). The part before “e” is mantissa, and the part after it is 10s exponent.

For example:

6.5522e-01 = 6.5522 * 10^(-1) = 0.65522

1.2345e+03 = 1.2345 * 10^(3) = 1234.5

Best,

Adam

Hi Adam 

Thanks for the pointer ,

However I have a (5x1) tensor which can take any value

for example C0=[6.5522e-01  3.4683e-05  3.4471e-01  3.0375e-05  4.6763e-07]

                    C1=[6.5522e-08  7.4683e-06  7.4471e-05  3.0375e-05  4.6763e-07] 

I was in search of better technique to convert the tensor to their decimal values in one shot

Hi,

If you want to do print the decimals you can try with something like this:

for i = 1, C:size(1) do

  print(string.format('%.20f', C[i]))

end

You can change 20 to any other number. It allows you to specify the number of decimal places you’d like to see.

Best,

Adam

Thanks Adam;

Rather than printing the array, I prefer to store it in another array with 5 decimal points. Is that possible ?
