Support for scientific notation in table output

[maxpaton]

Hi there,

Thanks a lot for your plugin, I like it a lot.

Is there any chance you could add support for scientific notation in the 'Table Result' output? For numbers like 0.00000000000001 it would be nice if you could see that as 1e-14, instead of having to turn the float precision all the way up to avoid the number being shown as 0.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Max,

Yes, I think that's possible as an option in configs by default and as a thousands separator in Table View options: https://www.kdbinsidebrains.dev/features/tables#thousands-separator

Ill check the best way here.

Hi,

I'm afraid it doesn't look like it does (see screenshot below). Here the zeros correspond to the KDB float 0.0000000000001, which have showed up as zero despite be enabling the thousands separator. Unless I am missing something?

Thanks

[smklimenko]

it doesn't. I just said it will be implemented the same way once implemented

[maxpaton]

Sorry I misunderstood! Okay great, I'll wait to hear from you on the confirmation of implementation.

Thanks a lot.

Try version 5.4.0: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/16746-kdbinsidebrains/edit/versions/stable/491129

It's disabled by default for now, so you have to enabled it in Settings: https://www.kdbinsidebrains.dev/settings/options#decimal-format or each time in the Table View: https://www.kdbinsidebrains.dev/features/tables#scientific-notation

Great, thanks a lot for doing that!
