[erlang-questions] io:format printing integers prefixed with zero(0)

[Peter Lund]

or:

1> string:right(integer_to_list(3),3,$0).
"003"
2> string:right(integer_to_list(50),3,$0).
"050"
3> string:right(integer_to_list(205),3,$0).
"205"
4> string:right(integer_to_list(33205),3,$0).
"205"

does almost the same...
