How to Remove Trailing Zeros from a Double

How to remove trailing zeros from a double

Use DecimalFormat

  double answer = 5.0;
   DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("###.#");
  System.out.println(df.format(answer));

Remove trailing zeros from double

If you are willing to switch to BigDecimal, there is a #stripTrailingZeroes() method that accomplishes this.

How to remove trailing zeros using Dart

I made regular expression pattern for that feature.

double num = 12.50; // 12.5
double num2 = 12.0; // 12
double num3 = 1000; // 1000

RegExp regex = RegExp(r'([.]*0)(?!.*\d)');

String s = num.toString().replaceAll(regex, '');

Swift - Remove Trailing Zeros From Double

In Swift 4 you can do it like that:

extension Double {
    func removeZerosFromEnd() -> String {
        let formatter = NumberFormatter()
        let number = NSNumber(value: self)
        formatter.minimumFractionDigits = 0
        formatter.maximumFractionDigits = 16 //maximum digits in Double after dot (maximum precision)
        return String(formatter.string(from: number) ?? "")
    }
}

example of use: print (Double("128834.567891000").removeZerosFromEnd())
result: 128834.567891

You can also count how many decimal digits has your string:

import Foundation

extension Double {
    func removeZerosFromEnd() -> String {
        let formatter = NumberFormatter()
        let number = NSNumber(value: self)
        formatter.minimumFractionDigits = 0
        formatter.maximumFractionDigits = (self.components(separatedBy: ".").last)!.count
        return String(formatter.string(from: number) ?? "")
    }
}

How to remove trailing zeros when using doubles in strings with C#?

string source = "2.4200";
string output = double.Parse(source).ToString();

Remove trailing zeros

Is it not as simple as this, if the input IS a string? You can use one of these:

string.Format("{0:G29}", decimal.Parse("2.0044"))

decimal.Parse("2.0044").ToString("G29")

2.0m.ToString("G29")

This should work for all input.

Update Check out the Standard Numeric Formats I've had to explicitly set the precision specifier to 29 as the docs clearly state:

However, if the number is a Decimal and the precision specifier is omitted, fixed-point notation is always used and trailing zeros are preserved

Update Konrad pointed out in the comments:

Watch out for values like 0.000001. G29 format will present them in the shortest possible way so it will switch to the exponential notation. string.Format("{0:G29}", decimal.Parse("0.00000001",System.Globalization.CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US"))) will give "1E-08" as the result.

Remove trailing zero in C++

This is one thing that IMHO is overly complicated in C++. Anyway, you need to specify the desired format by setting properties on the output stream. For convenience a number of manipulators are defined.

In this case, you need to set fixed representation and set precision to 2 to obtain the rounding to 2 decimals after the point using the corresponding manipulators, see below (notice that setprecisioncauses rounding to the desired precision). The tricky part is then to remove trailing zeroes. As far as I know C++ does not support this out of the box, so you have to do some string manipulation.

To be able to do this, we will first "print" the value to a string and then manipulate that string before printing it:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

int main()
{ 
    double value = 12.498;
    // Print value to a string
    std::stringstream ss;
    ss << std::fixed << std::setprecision(2) << value;
    std::string str = ss.str();
    // Ensure that there is a decimal point somewhere (there should be)
    if(str.find('.') != std::string::npos)
    {
        // Remove trailing zeroes
        str = str.substr(0, str.find_last_not_of('0')+1);
        // If the decimal point is now the last character, remove that as well
        if(str.find('.') == str.size()-1)
        {
            str = str.substr(0, str.size()-1);
        }
    }
    std::cout << str << std::endl;
}
