I have the following code in Python 3.1
"{0:.6E}".format(9.0387681E-8)
Which gives a string of 9.038768E-08
, but I want the string 9.038768E-8
with the leading 0 of E-08
removed. How should I go about this?

Answer
you could do something like this
"{0:.6E}".format(9.0387681E-8).replace("E-0", "E-")
or better as JBernardo suggests
format(9.0387681E-8, '.6E').replace("E-0", "E-")
You need to do a replace for E+0
as well if you have big numbers
