need help with changing a double to a string

[myob]

i need help with changing a double variable to a string variable. if anyone knows a command that can change a double variable to a string variable, it will be greatly appreciated

C:

code:

#include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int main() {    char foo[256];    double d = 42.27;    sprintf(foo, "%f", d);    return 0; }

C++:

code:

#include <string> #include <sstream> int main() {    std::stringstream ss;    double d = 42.27;    std::string foo;    ss << d;    foo = ss.str();    return 0; }

still got a question.. does this work under ccc_win.cpp?

edit:
btw, im using dirty borland c++, dirty school wont let us use visual c++

jeez its the other way around.

borland == clean... vc++ == dirty. gcc == compatibility. gcc is prefered for development.. but borland is prefered for teaching.

That code will work with any standards compliant compiler. If it doesn't work with your compiler, then your compiler is deficient.

This also works, and it has the advantage of not using sprintf

code:

#include <stdlib.h> #define PRECISION 100 ...     char *string     double d = 10.1010101;     gcvt(d, PRECISION, string); ...

Problem is, that's not standard.
