I don't think so. 
You can however, use the printf's format specifier at output: 
"%n.p"  where n is the total width of the number and p is the dec.places.

Normally 7.2 is used for prices, that means xxxxx.xx . 

eg.                            

price = 23.56789; 
                 
printf("Price = $%7.2f",price); output-> Price = $23.56

I'm not sure if the "%07.2f" works on floats, if it does then the 0 will 
become a left fill for smaller than specified numbers.
The output then would become s'thing like 00023.56.
