I need to round a float to two decimal places in Java [duplicate]

Answer 1

If you're looking for currency formatting (which you didn't specify, but it seems that is what you're looking for) try the NumberFormat class. It's very simple:

double d = 2.3d;
NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
String output = formatter.format(d);

Which will output (depending on locale):

$2.30

Also, if currency isn't required (just the exact two decimal places) you can use this instead:

NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
formatter.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
formatter.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
String output = formatter.format(d);

Which will output 2.30
