Hello together !
I hope someone can help me with the following problem:
I am using Mathematica via a Mathlink Connection. As commands I am sending
text-packets and I want to receive the calculated result also as
Returntext-packet.
This so far works well unless the calculated result is in an exponential
format like p.ex.
2.93219 x 10^7
In this case I would receive in the Returntext-packet something like this:
7\0122.93219 10 (with 10 leading blanks)
which is very unsatisfying for me.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Greetings,
Rolf
