how to print a float value in lcd

[skarthikshines]

hi all am using msp430g2231 and am using code composer studio..
i and am trying to display a adc value to my lcd.. my input voltage is 1.85v for that am getting a digital value like 532..
and i tried to show this digital value and i did that successfully.. now i need to show the float value to my lcd by converting the digital value in to analog by this following calculation


analog value =(532*1023)*3.57 = 1.856
now i need to display that float value to my lcd please suggest me a code for this ?????

You can multiply the float to become a decimal and then print it as usual adding a dot character in correct position.
Note that the analogue value is ADCresult*3.57/1023 (for a 10bit ADC) so my suggestion would look like ADCresult*3570/1023 and the result will be in milli volts.

(532*1023)/3.57 = 1856 then you just need to show '1' '.' '8' '5' '6' 'v'
