Easiest way to display a number? #19

Closed TommySharpNZ closed 8 years ago

Hey guys, if I have an integer something like 62581.... Is there an easy way to get it displayed on an 8 digit 7 segment setup?

Do I have to split it up into the individual numbers or is there some trick I can do? I've seen some code snippets that divide by stuff and break it into 8 digits but I'm not sure how I'd ignore leading zeros and not end up with displaying 00062581....

Any help would be appreciated.

Tommy
