Ergibt 5.e-002
Warum ist das so ?

I get a lot of those too, I´m used to integers, calculating float is a bit too much for me.
I have seen it on results of my programs displaying variables onscreen...

I usually try PRINT FORMAT$ to round them, but some gets through.

I have also tried:
   ppx=INTEGER(j0*100.0)/100.0*10

to get rounded variables to my decimal needs.
I wish I would know what these e-thing means.

Reading joy results (-1 0 1) I get those, after rounding them, it goes ok on pc, on caanoo, the g-sensor still gives me some .e-XXX
But it is working perfectly though, that is a good sign!

0.05 = 5e-2 = 5*10^-2
macht er so, weils kürzer ist. Format$ sollte helfen.

Format$ ist Ok, trotzdem blöd.
