How to print a float with 2 decimal places in Java

Question

Can I do it with System out print

User · Answer

A simple trick is to generate a shorter version of your variable by multiplying it with e.g. 100, rounding it and dividing it by 100.0 again. This way you generate a variable, with 2 decimal places:

double new_variable = Math.round(old_variable*100) / 100.0;

This "cheap trick" was always good enough for me, and works in any language (I am not a Java person, just learning it).

You can use the printf method  like so   System out printf    2f   val     In short  the   2f syntax tells Java to return your variable  val  with 2 decimal places   2  in decimal representation of a floating-point number  f  from the start of the format specifier       There are other conversion characters you can use besides f    d  decimal integer o  octal integer e  floating-point in scientific notation

OK - str to float   package test   import java text DecimalFormat   public class TestPtz     public static void main String   args        String preset0    0 09 0 20 0 09 0 07       String   thisto   preset0 split               float a    Float valueOf thisto 0    floatValue        System out println   Original       a          a    float   a   0 01           Part 1 - for display   debug     System out printf   Local     2f  n   a          Part 2 - when value requires to be send as it is     DecimalFormat df   new DecimalFormat        df setMinimumFractionDigits 2       df setMaximumFractionDigits 2       System out println   Remote       df format a             Output   run   Original   0 09  Local   0 10   Remote   0 10 BUILD SUCCESSFUL  total time  0 seconds

Many people have mentioned DecimalFormat   But you can also use printf if you have a recent version of Java   System out printf   1 2f   3 14159D     See the docs on the Formatter for more information about the printf format string

Try this -  private static String getDecimalFormat double value         String getValue   String valueOf value  split        1          if  getValue length      1              return String valueOf value  split        0                         getValue substring 0  1                     String format   0  1  d   0            else             return String valueOf value  split        0                     getValue substring 0  2

You can use DecimalFormat  One way to use it   DecimalFormat df   new DecimalFormat    df setMaximumFractionDigits 2   System out println df format decimalNumber      Another one is to construct it using the      format   I find all formatting options less readable than calling the formatting methods  but that s a matter of preference

I would suggest using String format   if you need the value as a String in your code     For example  you can use String format   in the following way   float myFloat   2 001f   String formattedString   String format    02f   myFloat

Look at DecimalFormat  Here is an example from the tutorial     DecimalFormat myFormatter   new DecimalFormat pattern     String output   myFormatter format value     System out println value          pattern          output     If you choose a pattern like           you will get two decimal places  and I think that the values are rounded up  You will want to look at the link to get the exact format you want  e g   whether you want trailing zeros

You may use this quick codes below that changed itself at the end  Add how many zeros as refers to after the point  float y1   0 123456789  DecimalFormat df   new DecimalFormat    00      y1   Float valueOf df format y1         The variable y1 was equals to 0 123456789 before  After the code it turns into 0 12 only

Just do String str   System out printf    2f   val  replace            if you want to ensure that independently of the Locale of the user  you will always get   display a     as decimal separator  This is a must if you don t want to make your program crash if you later do some kind of conversion like float f   Float parseFloat str

One issue that had me for an hour or more  on DecimalFormat- It handles double and float inputs differently  Even change of RoundingMode did not help  I am no expert but thought it may help someone like me  Ended up using Math round instead   See below       DecimalFormat df   new DecimalFormat              double d   0 7750      System out println   Double 0 7750 - gt     Double valueOf df format d         float f   0 7750f      System out println   Float 0 7750f - gt    Float valueOf df format f            change the RoundingMode     df setRoundingMode RoundingMode HALF UP       System out println   Rounding Up Double 0 7750 - gt     Double valueOf df format d         System out println   Rounding Up Float 0 7750f - gt     Float valueOf df format f       Output   Double 0 7750 - gt  0 78 Float 0 7750f - gt  0 77  Rounding Up Double 0 7750 - gt  0 78 Rounding Up Float 0 7750f - gt  0 77
