Remove the leading 0's till the decimal

Question

I want to remove the leading zeros in the decimal numbers.

So i want the output should be .324 not 0.324. I tried str.replaceFi

Answer 1

do you want this for printing purposes? you wont be able to do any math using this, so i guess yes. then you could do:

BigDecimal number =new BigDecimal(0.254); 
       System.out.println(number.toString().substring(number.toString().indexOf("0.")+1));

output

.254000000000000003552713678800500929355621337890625
