In this tutorial we will learn Python Format Number to 2 Decimal Places Example.
Python Format Number to 2 Decimal Places Example
You can use the format()
method in Python to format a number to 2 decimal places. Here's an example:
number = 3.14159
formatted_number = "{:.2f}".format(number)
print(formatted_number)
Output:
3.14
We define a variable number in the code above that holds a floating-point integer with several decimal places. We then use the format()
method with the string format specifier "{:.2f}"
to format the number to 2 decimal places. Finally, we print the formatted number to the console.
Any floating-point number that you want to format can be replaced for the number variable, and the code will format it to 2 decimal places.
