So, if you want to concert form scientific notation to a real number,
you can use the "format" function (see dictionary). Example:
putformat("%1.0f",4.21911E+11) -- outputs 421911000000
Is that shat yo are looking for?

Hi friends,
see subject.
I have some values in a CSV with this notation
According to the dictionary I tried:
on mouseUp pMouseButton
put "4.21911E+11" into tSN
set itemdel to "+"
put char 1 to -2 of item 2 of tSN into t1
put item 2 of tSN into t2
put t1*10^t2 into tRes
#x*10^y.
end mouseUp
But tRes is also in scientific notation -> 1e+11
When I set a breakpoint and doubleclick that value
the little popup palette shows a real number however!?
What am I missing and is this the correct way to do what I need?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best
Klaus
