Format number to always show 2 decimal places

Question

I would like to format my numbers to always display 2 decimal places, rounding where applicable.

Examples:

number     display
------     -------
1            


        

Answer 1

A much more generic solution for rounding to N places

function roundN(num,n){
  return parseFloat(Math.round(num * Math.pow(10, n)) /Math.pow(10,n)).toFixed(n);
}


console.log(roundN(1,2))
console.log(roundN(1.34,2))
console.log(roundN(1.35,2))
console.log(roundN(1.344,2))
console.log(roundN(1.345,2))
console.log(roundN(1.344,3))
console.log(roundN(1.345,3))
console.log(roundN(1.3444,3))
console.log(roundN(1.3455,3))

Output

1.00
1.34
1.35
1.34
1.35
1.344
1.345
1.344
1.346
