math - Converting very small numbers -


how can convert small numbers in lua? example 1.75245e-09 or 7.73411e-08 works e-04

from lua interpreter: 1> 1.75245e-05 1.75245e-05 1> 1.75245e-04 0.000175245

what want string.format works c print-into-string function sprintf.

thus 

string.format("%f",7.73411e-08)

should yield desired output. if useful have many leading zeros question. did not test this, default length might limited. if use

string.format("%20f",7.73411e-08)

to provide sufficient space.

ios - Realm over CoreData should I use NSFetchedResultController or a Dictionary? -

i'm working on app using core data , nsfetchedresultcontroller many reasons switch use realm. saw there "realm version" of nsfetchedresultcontroller on github wouldn't compatible current code using core data. the view controller displaying list of people same school, address book. list sublist of people studied in same city. so thinking make 1 unique request database retrieve list of people , filter locally list within 1 dictionary per school [string: anyobject] string section name within tableview , anyobject array of people. first solution, make nsfetchedresultcontroller each school predicate filtering location. delete actions etc.. handled delegates -> not compatible realm create dictionaries , update them each actions... -> works realm it's annoying code. any better solution? edit: i need clarify request: i'd write class inherit uitableviewcontroller. this class has list of people sorted in alphabetical order the tableview has ...
