routine to convert number to fixed length with last digit=ASCII logic
I need to write a routine to convert numbers to fixed length string, with the last digit following ASCII logic
for example: balance is decimal(12,2), the value is -415158.1, requested fixed length is 12, left pad 0 if the length is less than 12, and the . should be removed.
ASCII logic is:
if the last digit is 0 and it is negative, convert the last number to }
if the last digit is 1 and it is negative, convert the last number to J,
if the last digit is 2 and it is negative, convert the last number to K ...
if the last digit is 0 and it is positive, convert the last number to {
if the last digit is 1 and it is positive, convert the last number to A,
if the last digit is 2 and it is positive, convert the last number to B,....
This translate routine will have 3 variables, one decimal Balance, one integer length1, one integer decimal1
translate(-415158.1,12,2) returns 00004151581} (first make it to -415158.10)
translate(-415158.11,12,2) returns 00004151581J
translate(415158,12,2) returns 00004151580{ (first make it to 415158.00)
I have very limited knowledge in java, please help. Thank you.
