%f and %g are the right things to try; since they didn't work,
one concludes that your Lattice C implementation either doesn't
support them at all or supports them in some funny way.  You
might check whether there's a separate floating-point support
library you need to use that includes a more capable printf().

Note that %lf is not necessary, since it is not possible for
printf() to receive a (float) (it would be coerced to a (double)
when printf() is called).
