Actually its the same as in C, if you take a closer look.

%2f = 2 decimal places
%3f = 3 decimal places... and so on.

Ah, thank you user. I guess i just didn't relate format to string/math manipulation.

Rounding to x places?

2004-08-21T12:53:58-04:00

I have looked through the tcl/tk help and tried using expr round(), this works of corse. However i seem unabled to round accurately to a specific X places. I have seen in a few places people use things such as [expr round(9.345) * 1.0] or similar things, but such workarounds are not very accurate as you can see simply by looking at the logic in the math.

Can anybody help me out with a more accurate method of rounding? TIA
