     Procedure @ARR                          Voir aussi : @FIX
     --------------                                       ENTI   
  Syntaxe :   MOT2 = @ARR FLOT1 ENTI1 (MOT1)

  
  

        Purpose :
        ---------

    This procedure builts a word MOT2 which is the approximation of
    the number FLOT1 to ENTI1 digits after the point.    

        Comments :
        ----------

    FLOT1 : number being approximated

    ENTI1 : number of digits after the point.

    MOT1  : facultative word equal to 'EXPOSANT' demanding the writing
            of MOT2 as 'aEb' (a being the mantiss, and b the exponent).

        Remarks :
        ---------

    1 - the writing in the 'EXPOSANT' form is automatic if MOT2
        would otherwise only be made of 0, or if FLOT1 is greater than
        1.D10.
    
    2 - the operator 'ENTIER' results in the truncation rather than
        in the integer part, which is not valid for the negative
        numbers. This is corrected here.

    3 - Does not work with long numbers.

    4 - The quality of the results depends on the machine precision.
