String formatting for a number
<p>I have the following number:</p>

<pre><code>0006.5400
0000.5400
0000.0000
</code></pre>

<p>How would I get strip all leading zero's on the left, except if the first digit is a zero. Is there a 'limit' on <code>lstrip()</code>?</p>

<p>I was able to fix this at the database level, but curious anyways.</p>
