How to decrease the decimal places of a float number in javascript?
For example, I want 3.3333333333 to become 3.34 .
What is the simplest way to do this in javascript ?
I've tried functions like Math.ceil , but it returns me the integer value.
float_value = 3.333333;
Math.ceil(float_value); // 4
Use the Math.round () function returns the value of the nearest integer.
Math.round(num * 100) / 100
You can also use the toFixed () :
parseFloat("123.456").toFixed(2); // Se for uma string, converta pra numéro
You can use toFixed () to do this, but it returns a String , not a float . From the site itself:
var num = 5.56789;
var n = num.toFixed(2);
results in
5.57
