Konstantin,

Try...

Table[ToString[PaddedForm[t, {3, 2}]], {t, 0, 1, 0.05}]

or unless you have a good reason for strings...

Table[PaddedForm[t, {3, 2}], {t, 0, 1, 0.05}]

Mathematica pads an extra place for the sign as you can see with

Table[PaddedForm[t, {3, 2}], {t, -0.1, 1, 0.05}]

Hello mathgroup,

This works as expected:

In:= Table[ToString[PaddedForm[t, {1, 2}]], {t, 0, 1, 0.1}]

Out:= { 0.00,  0.10,  0.20,  0.30,  0.40,  0.50,  0.60,  0.70,  0.80,  0.90,
1.00}

This gives wrong output:


In:= Table[ToString[PaddedForm[t, {1, 2}]], {t, 0, 1, 0.05}]

Out:= { 0.00,  0.05,  0.10,  0.20,  0.20,  0.30,  0.30,  0.40,  0.40,  0.50,
0.50, 0.60,  0.60,  0.70,  0.70,  0.80,  0.80,  0.90,  0.90,  1.00,  1.00}

Should be 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25,...

A bug?
