SAS Format

Hi,

In one code of SAS I get an output like - 4.59E-15

Another code (same varibale) the output is like - 4.59038E-15

I can't see that any formatting has been done on the first output and I would like the second output to be the same as the first.

Any idea what format I need to use please?

Use the `Ew.d` format, perhaps?


data _null_;
x= 4.59038E-15;
put x= E9.2;
run;
