Description:
This method formats the current field value as an IEEE-standard double-precision (64 bits or 8 bytes) floating- point number. Such a number is comprised of the following bits: 1 for sign, 11 for the exponent, and 52 for the mantissa. The optional parameter specifies the number of decimal places to be formatted with a default of two. An attempt to use Double with a value that has been sized at other than 64 bits will result in an error.
Parameters:

[optional] |
int |
"Number of places after the decimal point" |
(Default value: 2) |

[optional] |
Str |
String to be appended after number |
