Replacing float numbers of a given variable

[Alberto Alvarez]

Dear Stata Users,

Can you please help me to set the numbers inside the variables in a following format - "x.yz". For instance, in the dataset below I want to have numbers in variables "b" and "c" in a following format:

b c
0.91 0.00
1.6 0.00
2.28 10.00
2.74 25.00
5.25 8.70

* Example generated by -dataex-. To install: ssc install dataex

input str40 main_var float(a b c)
"aa"  4  .91   0
"bb"  7  1.6   0
"cc" 10 2.28  10
"dd" 12 2.74  25
"ee" 23 5.25 8.7
end
