Yes, true...  I just assume everyone has the PRO version (silly me). 
You'll have to 'roll-your-own' then.  Create a simple function that
takes a float and returns a String.  Analyze the float object and
construct the String character by character...

public String displayFloat(float f, int decimals) {
  ... should be pretty simple ...
}
