Rashad,

That is a c++ stream's formatting question, not a gdal-dev question.  I
would suggest you review the formatting options for the stream class:

   http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/ostream/

In particular pay attention to the "field width" and "display precision"
values.  Also I see something about scientific vs. fixed format in the setf()
method:

   http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/ios_base/setf/

Personally I hate the way formatting works with the C++ stream classes
but I'm very old fashioned.

Best regards,
