How to convert decimal to scientific in SQL Server 2008 R2 -

-

i have table named product. table looks this:

id   product           volume 1      xyz       4654.000000000000000 2      abc       121.000000000000000

i want represent volume in scientific notation. volume of datatype decimal(20,8).

how can conversion?

normally, formatting , presentation of data should done ui, on client side, if insist...

declare @t decimal(20,8) = 4654.000000000000000; select @t, convert(nvarchar(32), cast(@t float), 2)

result

4654.00000000   4.654000000000000e+003

first cast decimal float (please note, may loose precision), convert float nvarchar using style 2:

always 16 digits. use in scientific notation.

note

float type has 15 digits of precision, can't store decimal(20,8) without loss of precision.

javascript - Create websocket without connecting -

-
is there way create websocket without connecting right away? far think var ws = new websocket("ws://ws.my.url.com"); creates , connects right away. i'd create socket, define callbacks, , connect once user clicks connect button. thanks no. creating websocket means you've created connection server (or started process of connecting). there no such thing creating websocket isn't connecting yet. you create object store configuration parameters , tell object connect when wanted to, though i'm not sure why that's better creating actual websocket when connect made. or create function setup work , call function later when user clicks connect button.
