Rounding to 2 Decimal Points

How to round to 2 decimals with Python?

You can use the round function, which takes as its first argument the number and the second argument is the precision after the decimal point.

In your case, it would be:

answer = str(round(answer, 2))

Formatting a number with exactly two decimals in JavaScript

To format a number using fixed-point notation, you can simply use the toFixed method:

(10.8).toFixed(2); // "10.80"

var num = 2.4;
alert(num.toFixed(2)); // "2.40"

Note that toFixed() returns a string.

IMPORTANT: Note that toFixed does not round 90% of the time, it will return the rounded value, but for many cases, it doesn't work.

For instance:

2.005.toFixed(2) === "2.00"

UPDATE:

Nowadays, you can use the Intl.NumberFormat constructor. It's part of the ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification (ECMA402). It has pretty good browser support, including even IE11, and it is fully supported in Node.js.

const formatter = new Intl.NumberFormat('en-US', {
   minimumFractionDigits: 2,      
   maximumFractionDigits: 2,
});

console.log(formatter.format(2.005)); // "2.01"
console.log(formatter.format(1.345)); // "1.35"

How to round to at most 2 decimal places, if necessary

Use Math.round() :

Math.round(num * 100) / 100

Or to be more specific and to ensure things like 1.005 round correctly, use Number.EPSILON :

Math.round((num + Number.EPSILON) * 100) / 100

round up to 2 decimal places in java?

Well this one works...

double roundOff = Math.round(a * 100.0) / 100.0;

Output is

123.14

Or as @Rufein said

 double roundOff = (double) Math.round(a * 100) / 100;

this will do it for you as well.

Round up double to 2 decimal places

Use a format string to round up to two decimal places and convert the double to a String:

let currentRatio = Double (rxCurrentTextField.text!)! / Double (txCurrentTextField.text!)!
railRatioLabelField.text! = String(format: "%.2f", currentRatio)

Example:

let myDouble = 3.141
let doubleStr = String(format: "%.2f", myDouble) // "3.14"

If you want to round up your last decimal place, you could do something like this (thanks Phoen1xUK):

let myDouble = 3.141
let doubleStr = String(format: "%.2f", ceil(myDouble*100)/100) // "3.15"

How to round a number to n decimal places in Java

Use setRoundingMode, set the RoundingMode explicitly to handle your issue with the half-even round, then use the format pattern for your required output.

Example:

DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#.####");
df.setRoundingMode(RoundingMode.CEILING);
for (Number n : Arrays.asList(12, 123.12345, 0.23, 0.1, 2341234.212431324)) {
    Double d = n.doubleValue();
    System.out.println(df.format(d));
}

gives the output:

12
123.1235
0.23
0.1
2341234.2125

EDIT: The original answer does not address the accuracy of the double values. That is fine if you don't care much whether it rounds up or down. But if you want accurate rounding, then you need to take the expected accuracy of the values into account. Floating point values have a binary representation internally. That means that a value like 2.7735 does not actually have that exact value internally. It can be slightly larger or slightly smaller. If the internal value is slightly smaller, then it will not round up to 2.7740. To remedy that situation, you need to be aware of the accuracy of the values that you are working with, and add or subtract that value before rounding. For example, when you know that your values are accurate up to 6 digits, then to round half-way values up, add that accuracy to the value:

Double d = n.doubleValue() + 1e-6;

To round down, subtract the accuracy.

How to round to two decimal places in python?

You missplaced the %.2:

tax = (round(subtotal * 0.0475, 2))

And you don't need the %.

Show a number to two decimal places

You can use number_format():

return number_format((float)$number, 2, '.', '');

Example:

$foo = "105";
echo number_format((float)$foo, 2, '.', '');  // Outputs -> 105.00

This function returns a string.
