Integer to string without exponent

Question

I have a number a=11**20 and I need to output it to a string.

But str(a) doesn't fit the way it will:

'6.727499949325601e+20'

, and I need it to be an integer without an exponent:

'672749994932560009201'

Most likely you have a fractional number:

In [18]: str(11.0**20)
Out[18]: '6.727499949325601e+20'

To specify the format you need, use string formatting:

In [19]: res = '{:.0f}'.format(11.0**20)

In [20]: res
Out[20]: '672749994932560068608'
