How do you round to 1 decimal place in Javascript?

Question

Can you round a number in javascript to 1 character after the decimal point (properly rounded)?

I tried the *10, round, /10 but it leaves two decimals at the end of

Answer 1

If you use Math.round(5.01) you will get 5 instead of 5.0.

If you use toFixed you run into rounding issues.

If you want the best of both worlds combine the two:

(Math.round(5.01 * 10) / 10).toFixed(1)

You might want to create a function for this:

function roundedToFixed(_float, _digits){
  var rounded = Math.pow(10, _digits);
  return (Math.round(_float * rounded) / rounded).toFixed(_digits);
}
