Data : test type p.

if you are using type f variable then you will get the output as exponent.

data : var type f value 5.

write : / var.

5.0000000000000000E+00

i.e. like this this is the float representation.

data : var type p decimals 2 value 5.

write : / var.

you will get 5.00 like this...

so as per your requirement you can use the type p or type f.
