This question already has an answer here:
I need to find a way to convert the following strings in python:
0.000 => 0
0 => 0
123.45000 => 123.45
0000 => 0
123.4506780 => 123.450678
and so forth. I tried .rstrip('0').rstrip('.'), but that doesn't work if the input is 0 or 00.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Updated Generalized to maintain precision and handle unseen values:
import decimal
import random
def format_number(num):
try:
dec = decimal.Decimal(num)
except:
return 'bad'
tup = dec.as_tuple()
delta = len(tup.digits) + tup.exponent
digits = ''.join(str(d) for d in tup.digits)
if delta <= 0:
zeros = abs(tup.exponent) - len(tup.digits)
val = '0.' + ('0'*zeros) + digits
else:
val = digits[:delta] + ('0'*tup.exponent) + '.' + digits[delta:]
val = val.rstrip('0')
if val[-1] == '.':
val = val[:-1]
if tup.sign:
return '-' + val
return val

You can use format strings if you want, but be aware that you might need to set your desired precision, as format strings have their own logic for this by default. Janneb suggests a precision of 17 in another answer.
'{:g}'.format(float(your_string_goes_here))
After thinking about this some more, though, I think the simplest and best solution is just to cast the string twice (as jathanism suggests):
str(float(your_string_goes_here))
Edit: Added clarification because of comment.
For the floating point numbers, you can just cast the string to a float:
>>> float('123.4506780')
123.450678
For the zero values, you can just cast those to an integer:
>>> int('0000')
0
When printed, numeric values are automatically converted to strings. If you need these to actually be strings, you may simply cast them back to strings with str(), e.g.:
>>> str(float('123.4506780'))
'123.450678'
'%.17g' % float(mystr)
depending on what you actually want to do..

The pattern of the regex defines 4 sub-patterns, each one matching with a certain type of numbers. Each time the regex matches with a part of a string, there is only one of the sub-patterns that matches, hence the possibility to use mat.lastindex in the replacement function. The following code shows the matchings of the sub-pattern against various numbers:
import re
def float_show(ch,
regx = re.compile(
'(?<![\d.])'
'0*' # potentiel heading zeros
'(?:'
'(\d+)\.?' # INTEGERS :

# 000450 , 136000 , 87 , 000 , 0
# ~ integer part non-0 + '.'
# 0044. , 4100.
# ~ integer part 0 + '.'
# 000. , 0.
# ~ integer part non-0 + '.' + fractional part 0:
# 000570.00 , 193.0 , 3.000
'|\.(0)' # SPECIAL CASE, 0 WITH FRACTIONAL PART :

regx.sub('\\1',ch)
.
To correct the remaining shortcomings [ '.0000' producing '.' , pointed out by John Machin, and '000078000' producing '78' ] , I rewrote a regex build on a new idea. It's simpler. The regex detects all types of numbers.
This solution not only cuts the trailing zeros off, but also the heading zeros.
Here's the comparison of this solution with John Machin's tidy_float() , samplebias's number_format() , arussell84's '{:g}'.format() . There are some differences between the results of my function (all correct this time) and the others :
import re
def number_shaver(ch,
regx = re.compile('(?<![\d.])0*(?:'
'(\d+)\.?|\.(0)'
'|(\.\d+?)|(\d+\.\d+?)'
')0*(?![\d.])') ,
repl = lambda mat: mat.group(mat.lastindex)
if mat.lastindex!=3
else '0' + mat.group(3) ):
return regx.sub(repl,ch)
def tidy_float(s): # John Machin
"""Return tidied float representation.
Remove superflous leading/trailing zero digits.
Remove '.' if value is an integer.

I consider that my solution have two advantages:
the regex and the function number_shave() are short
number_shave() doesn't only treat one number at a time but it also detects and treats all the numbers in a string. Here's a treatment that John Machin's and arrussel84's solutions can't do:
code:

.
Consequently, the regex can also been used to merely find all the numbers in a string, without removing the zeros if not wished.
