Converting float to char*

Question

How can I convert a float value to char* in C language?

Answer 1

In Arduino:

//temporarily holds data from vals
char charVal[10];                

//4 is mininum width, 3 is precision; float value is copied onto buff
dtostrf(123.234, 4, 3, charVal);

monitor.print("charVal: ");
monitor.println(charVal);
