Syntax​

NumFracDigits(value)

Arguments​

value Numeric - The number whose fractional digits should be counted. Some input numbers will be rounded because the computer cannot store all the places.

Remarks​

Example:

NumFracDigits(123.4567); // returns 4

Example:

NumFracDigits(1234567890.1234567890123456789012345); // returns 19 because the input is rounded to 1234567890.1234567890123456789

Example:

NumFracDigits(0.12345678901234567890123456789012345); // returns 28 because the input is rounded to 0.1234567890123456789012345679

Example:

NumFracDigits(0.00123000); // returns 5 because trailing zeros are not counted, but leading zeros in the fractional part are
