<p>SetMagickPrecision() sets the maximum number of significant digits to be printed.</p>
<p>An input argument of 0 returns the current precision setting.</p>
<p>A negative value forces the precision to reset to a default value according to the environment variable "MAGICK_PRECISION", the current 'policy' configuration setting, or the default value of '6', in that order.</p>
<p>The format of the SetMagickPrecision method is:</p>
