formatting variable to display on 4 x 20 lcd Moderators: adafruit_support_bill, adafruit

[frankups1]

Hello, I am trying to display a temperature value stored in a mysql database onto a 4x20 character lcd. i am using adafruit lcd char_lcd library. i am able to display the temperature value but i can't figure out how to remove the 'decimal' from the display.

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

    lcd.message(F'Temp: {r}')

"r" is the temperature value

this is the code i am using and it works but unfortunately it displays as:

Thanks in advance!

You could use:

Code: Select all | TOGGLE FULL SIZE

"Temp: {0:.2f}".format(f)

Try `{r:d}`. This adds a digit format specifier. See here for details: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/inpu ... g-literals
