Formatting Weight Range : Adjusting decimal places in strings

This section focuses on formatting the weight range (e.g., “10 – 20 lbs”) into a more readable format with one decimal place.

1. Assign Original String: The weight range string is stored in the dimension_range variable.

<#assign dimension_range = itemLineDetails.weightrange />

1. Extract Numeric and Unit Parts: The numeric part of the weight range is separated from the unit (lbs), allowing for easier processing.

<#assign numeric_part = dimension_range?replace(" lbs", "") />
<#assign unit = "lbs" />

1. Split Numeric Part: The numeric part is split into individual values using the ' - ' delimiter.

<#assign range_parts = numeric_part?split(" - ") />

1. Initialize Formatted String: A variable formatted_range is initialized to store the formatted result.

<#assign formatted_range = "" />

1. Loop Through Parts: The code loops through each range part, converting it to a number and formatting it to one decimal place.

<#list range_parts as part>
    <#assign formatted_part = (part?number)?string("0.0") />

1. Concatenate Formatted Parts: The formatted parts are concatenated with the appropriate delimiter (" - "), and finally, the unit (lbs) is added.

<#if part_has_next>
    <#assign formatted_range += formatted_part + " - " />
<#else>
    <#assign formatted_range += formatted_part />
</#if>
</#list>
<#assign formatted_range += " " + unit />

1. Output the Result: The formatted weight range is then output.
