Option to remove trailing zeros when getting string value out of "FixedNumber"

[PaulRBerg]

Take the following code snippet:

const foo = FixedNumber.fromValue(BigNumber.from("10"), 1);
console.log(foo.toString());

I was expecting this to log x "1", but it logs "1.0". Is there an option to remove the superfluous zeros after the dot, if not when initializing the FixedNumber, at least when printing it out with toString()?

I know that I could use regular expressions for this, but I would prefer to use a "native" solution, if there exists one.

No, the string format is intentionally stable so that it is easier to parse using .split("."), which will always contain exactly two components. The only exception to this is if the number of decimals is 0, in which case there will never be a decimal point in the output.

Okay, thanks for confirming! I will implement a custom solution.

Side question: is there any case when toString() would return more than one zero after the dot?

I ran it on this number:

1000000000000000000

With the decimals set to 18, and I still got 1.0.

There will never be superfluous leading or trailing 0’s beyond a single 0 for an otherwise empty value. Which also makes it much easier to reformat. :)
