Double2String 
This Java library only contains a single class
Double2String
that contains two utility functions:
getDoubleString(double value) and getFloatString(float value).
These two functions essentially return the equivalent of "%g" output of
C printf for 64-bit
and 32-bit floating point values. The resulting strings are compact
representations of the floating values.
The necessity of this library is because Java's
printf
and
NumberFormat
do not have equivalent functionalities. For instance, the output of
System.out.printf ("%g", 1.1) is 1.10000. The compact representation
should be 1.1.
