[java] Round to 2 decimal places

Round a double to 2 significant figures after decimal point

I have:

mkm=((((amountdrug/fluidvol)*1000)/60)*infrate)/ptwt; 

in my Java code. The code works fine but returns to several decimal places. How do I limit it to just 2 or 3?

This question is related to java android

The answer is


BigDecimal a = new BigDecimal("12345.0789");
a = a.divide(new BigDecimal("1"), 2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
//Also check other rounding modes
System.out.println("a >> "+a.toPlainString()); //Returns 12345.08


Try:

float number mkm = (((((amountdrug/fluidvol)*1000f)/60f)*infrate)/ptwt)*1000f;
int newNum = (int) mkm;
mkm = newNum/1000f; // Will return 3 decimal places

double formattedNumber = Double.parseDouble(new DecimalFormat("#.##").format(unformattedNumber));

worked for me :)



Create a class called Round and try using the method round as Round.round(targetValue, roundToDecimalPlaces) in your code

public class Round {

        public static float round(float targetValue, int roundToDecimalPlaces ){

            int valueInTwoDecimalPlaces = (int) (targetValue * Math.pow(10, roundToDecimalPlaces));

            return (float) (valueInTwoDecimalPlaces / Math.pow(10, roundToDecimalPlaces));
        }

    }

Just use Math.round()

double mkm = ((((amountdrug/fluidvol)*1000f)/60f)*infrate)/ptwt;

mkm= (double)(Math.round(mkm*100))/100;

Don't use doubles. You can lose some precision. Here's a general purpose function.

public static double round(double unrounded, int precision, int roundingMode)
{
    BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(unrounded);
    BigDecimal rounded = bd.setScale(precision, roundingMode);
    return rounded.doubleValue();
}

You can call it with

round(yourNumber, 3, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);

"precision" being the number of decimal points you desire.
