Python floor decimal places.
Round floor ceil trunc.
Decimal is based on a floating point model which was designed with people in mind and necessarily has a paramount guiding principle computers must provide an arithmetic that works in the same way as the arithmetic that people learn at.
Import math math floor x note this function is not accessible directly so we need to import math module and then we need to call this function using math static object.
The decimal module provides support for fast correctly rounded decimal floating point arithmetic.
This is just because the round increase the value if the value after it is 5 or more than 5.
The second decimal place number is 8 in the example.
Now that we know the basic functioning of how the float function works let us now explore the various methods to convert a specific number of decimal points.
In addition to the built in round function the math module provides the floor ceil and trunc functions.
If the number in the third decimal place is more than 5 the 2nd decimal place.
First the decimal point in n is shifted the correct number of places to the right by multiplying n by 10 decimals.
The new value is rounded up to the nearest integer using math floor.
However after the round conversion you will get 9 as the second decimal number.
X this is a numeric expression.
X 1 55 y 1 55 round to the nearest integer round x 2 round y 2 the second argument gives how many decimal places to round to defaults to 0 round x 1 1 6 round y 1 1 6 math is a module so.
Format specifier to print floats to a specific number of decimal points in python.
Finally the decimal point is shifted back to the left by dividing by 10 decimals.
Python number method floor returns floor of x the largest integer not greater than x.
This is how the function rounded every variable up to two decimal places.
We can also notice that by default the float function prints the value only to one decimal point.
The third way to handle decimal digits is to always round down.
The above example showing the rounded string to 2 decimal places.
How to display a float with two decimal places in python.
You can use string formatting to format floating point numbers to a fixed width in python for example if you want the decimal points to be aligned with width of 12 characters and 2 digits on the right of the decimal you can use the following.
Floor x where x is a numeric value example of floor.
It offers several advantages over the float datatype.
Following is the syntax for floor method.
