Is there any other way of rounding off numbers without using 'round' ?

Answer 1

Levin Mwanganyi ,

as Lisa already mentioned, you can use an f-string or an other string formatting to get a defined number of decimal places from a float number. in this case a rounding is performed.

but there are also cases where you need to reduce the number of digital places but just cutting without any rounding:

n = 3 # number of decimal places
x = 1.1667

# this version is cutting to n decimal places included a rounding
print(f"{x:.{n}f}") # res: 1.167

# this version is cutting to n decimal places WITHOUT any rounding
print(int(x * (10**n))/(10**n) ) # res: 1.166

Answer 2

# string formatting
x = 1.2345
print(f"{x:.2f}")

Answer 3

Depends on the language. (Might be a good idea to put the language in the tag)

Answer 4

Do you mean "rounding" ("mathematically") or "rounding off" in terms of cutting off the decimals? For the later, converting the number to an integer might be an option.

Answer 5

I mean reducing the number of decimal places from let's say 4 to 2 decimal places

Answer 6

Thank you

Like the posts before double the expression symbols (**, //) will show up the value and cut decimalplaces
