Use a DecimalFormatter: Will give you “0.99”. You can add or subtract 0 on the right side to get more or less decimals. Or use ‘#’ on the right to make the additional digits optional, as in with #.## (0.30) would drop the trailing 0 to become (0.3).
Here’s an utility that rounds (instead of truncating) a double to specified number of decimal places. For example: Original version; watch out with this This breaks down badly in corner cases with either a very high number of decimal places (e.g. round(1000.0d, 17)) or large integer part (e.g. round(90080070060.1d, 9)). Thanks to Sloin for pointing this out. I’ve been using the above to round … Read more

You can convert char to int and viceversa easily because for the machine an int and a char are the same, 8 bits, the only difference comes when they have to be shown in screen, if the number is 65 and is saved as a char, then it will show ‘A’, if it’s saved as … Read more
The error is simply used to indicate a division where the denominator is of 0 value, e.g. your data somehow contains incorrect values, for example you try to take the square root of negative numbers, or 1/a where a (which is an array) contains zeroes. I am not able to reproduce the same error from the code … Read more
is there a possibility that casting a double created via Math.round() will still result in a truncated down number No, round() will always round your double to the correct value, and then, it will be cast to an long which will truncate any decimal places. But after rounding, there will not be any fractional parts remaining. Here are the docs from Math.round(double): … Read more
The boost ™ way: The Standard C++ way: Note: Don’t forget #include <sstream>
For variable argument functions like printf and scanf, the arguments are promoted, for example, any smaller integer types are promoted to int, float is promoted to double. scanf takes parameters of pointers, so the promotion rule takes no effect. It must use %f for float* and %lf for double*. printf will never see a float … Read more
“%f” is the (or at least one) correct format for a double. There is no format for a float, because if you attempt to pass a float to printf, it’ll be promoted to double before printf receives it1. “%lf” is also acceptable under the current standard — the l is specified as having no effect … Read more
