Truncate a float and a double in java

Question

I want to truncate a float and a double value in java.

Following are my requirements: 1. if i have 12.49688f, it should be printed as 12.49 without rounding off 2

Answer 1

try this out-

DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("##.##");
df.setRoundingMode(RoundingMode.DOWN);
System.out.println(df.format(12.49688f));
System.out.println(df.format(12.456));
System.out.println(df.format(12.0));

Here, we are using decimal formatter for formating. The roundmode is set to DOWN, so that it will not auto-round the decimal place.

The expected result is:

12.49
12.45
12
