I modified this code: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/newsreader/view_thread/167889
This function takes a numeric input and outputs a string in the small-field format recognized by Nastran. This is useful in modifying or creating new Nastran input files (.dat, .bdf). This isn't the most efficient code. It does not have much error-checking. It has not been properly vetted for bugs. Feel free to do so and send modifications.

1.1.0.0

The previous version would not add a decimal point every time. The code was a bit too confusing, so I rewrote it completely. No guarantees on stability or bugginess, but it works for my manipulation of large bdfs
