Truncate number to two decimal places without rounding

Question

Suppose I have a value of 15.7784514, I want to display it 15.77 with no rounding.

var num = parseFloat(15.7784514);
document.write(num.toFixed(1)+\"


        

Answer 1

The answers here didn't help me, it kept rounding up or giving me the wrong decimal.

my solution converts your decimal to a string, extracts the characters and then returns the whole thing as a number.

function Dec2(num) {
  num = String(num);
  if(num.indexOf('.') !== -1) {
    var numarr = num.split(".");
    if (numarr.length == 1) {
      return Number(num);
    }
    else {
      return Number(numarr[0]+"."+numarr[1].charAt(0)+numarr[1].charAt(1));
    }
  }
  else {
    return Number(num);
  }  
}

Dec2(99); // 99
Dec2(99.9999999); // 99.99
Dec2(99.35154); // 99.35
Dec2(99.8); // 99.8
Dec2(10265.985475); // 10265.98
