c++ estimate deciimal to a point

To estimate a decimal number to a specific precision in C++, you can make use of the setprecision function from the <iomanip> library. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Include the <iostream> and <iomanip> libraries in your C++ program:

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

1. Declare the decimal number you want to estimate:

double number = 3.14159;

1. Use the std::cout object to display the estimated number:

std::cout << std::setprecision(3) << number << std::endl;

In the above code, std::setprecision(3) sets the precision to 3 decimal places. You can replace 3 with any desired precision value.

1. Compile and run your program. The output will be the estimated number with the specified precision:

3.14

The setprecision function is a part of the <iomanip> library and is used to set the precision of floating-point output. It takes an integer argument that specifies the number of digits to display after the decimal point.

By using std::setprecision, you can control the precision of the floating-point output in C++ and estimate decimal numbers to a specific number of decimal places.
