std cout 2 digits float
To output a floating-point number with two digits after the decimal point using the std::cout
statement in C++, you can use the std::fixed
and std::setprecision
manipulators from the <iomanip>
library.
Here are the steps to achieve this:
- Include the
<iostream>
and<iomanip>
libraries at the beginning of your program:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
- Inside your code, use the
std::fixed
manipulator to set the floating-point output format to fixed-point notation:
std::cout << std::fixed;
- Use the
std::setprecision
manipulator to set the precision of the floating-point number to two decimal places:
std::cout << std::setprecision(2);
- Finally, use the
std::cout
statement to output the floating-point number:
float number = 3.14159;
std::cout << number << std::endl;
This will output the value of number
with two digits after the decimal point, like this: 3.14
.
Remember to include the necessary headers and apply the manipulators before using std::cout
to output the floating-point number.
