Format

[Bong]

Hello everybody,

A double data type when displayed or written to an output file and the value
is huge, how can we eliminate the exponential.Just the normal number with
a lot of decimal places and number of integer part ?

If you don't like the default format for a number, you have to format it
yourself. You can do that using a DecimalFormat object. Look in the
java.text package for that.
