Is there a way to format a decimal as following:
100 -> "100"
100.1 -> "100.10"
If it is a round number, omit the decimal part. Otherwise format with two decimal places.

I doubt it. The problem is that 100 is never 100 if it's a float, it's normally 99.9999999999 or 100.0000001 or something like that.
If you do want to format it that way, you have to define an epsilon, that is, a maximum distance from an integer number, and use integer formatting if the difference is smaller, and a float otherwise.
Something like this would do the trick:
public String formatDecimal(float number) {
float epsilon = 0.004f; // 4 tenths of a cent
if (Math.abs(Math.round(number) - number) < epsilon) {
return String.format("%10.0f", number); // sdb
} else {
return String.format("%10.2f", number); // dj_segfault
}
}
I'd recommend using the java.text package:
double money = 100.1;
NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
String moneyString = formatter.format(money);
System.out.println(moneyString);
This has the added benefit of being locale specific.
But, if you must, truncate the String you get back if it's a whole dollar:
if (moneyString.endsWith(".00")) {
int centsIndex = moneyString.lastIndexOf(".00");
if (centsIndex != -1) {
moneyString = moneyString.substring(1, centsIndex);
}
}
double amount =200.0;
Locale locale = new Locale("en", "US");
NumberFormat currencyFormatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
System.out.println(currencyFormatter.format(amount));
or
double amount =200.0;
System.out.println(NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(new Locale("en", "US"))
.format(amount));
The best way to display currency
Output
$200.00
If you don't want to use sign use this method
double amount = 200;
DecimalFormat twoPlaces = new DecimalFormat("0.00");
System.out.println(twoPlaces.format(amount));
200.00
This also can be use (With the thousand separator )
double amount = 2000000;
System.out.println(String.format("%,.2f", amount));
2,000,000.00
I did not find any good solution after google search, just post my solution for other to reference. use priceToString to format money.
public static String priceWithDecimal (Double price) {
DecimalFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat("###,###,###.00");
return formatter.format(price);
}
public static String priceWithoutDecimal (Double price) {
DecimalFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat("###,###,###.##");
return formatter.format(price);
}
public static String priceToString(Double price) {
String toShow = priceWithoutDecimal(price);
if (toShow.indexOf(".") > 0) {
return priceWithDecimal(price);
} else {
return priceWithoutDecimal(price);
}
}
Yes. You can use java.util.formatter. You can use a formatting string like "%10.2f"
I'm using this one (using StringUtils from commons-lang):
Double qty = 1.01;
String res = String.format(Locale.GERMANY, "%.2f", qty);
String fmt = StringUtils.removeEnd(res, ",00");
You must only take care of the locale and the corresponding String to chop.
I think this is simple and clear for printing a currency:
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("$###,###.##"); // or pattern "###,###.##$"
System.out.println(df.format(12345.678));
output: $12,345.68
And one of possible solutions for the question:
public static void twoDecimalsOrOmit(double d) {
System.out.println(new DecimalFormat(d%1 == 0 ? "###.##" : "###.00").format(d));
}
twoDecimalsOrOmit((double) 100);
twoDecimalsOrOmit(100.1);
Output:
100
100.10
you should do something like this:
public static void main(String[] args) {
double d1 = 100d;
double d2 = 100.1d;
print(d1);
print(d2);
}
private static void print(double d) {
String s = null;
if (Math.round(d) != d) {
s = String.format("%.2f", d);
} else {
s = String.format("%.0f", d);
}
System.out.println(s);
}
which prints:
100
100,10
I know this is an old question but...
import java.text.*;
public class FormatCurrency
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
double price = 123.4567;
DecimalFormat df = new DecimalFormat("#.##");
System.out.print(df.format(price));
}
}
You can just do something like this and pass in the whole number and then the cents after.
String.format("$%,d.%02d",wholeNum,change);
I agree with @duffymo that you need to use the java.text.NumberFormat
methods for this sort of things. You can actually do all the formatting natively in it without doing any String compares yourself:
private String formatPrice(final double priceAsDouble)
{
NumberFormat formatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
if (Math.round(priceAsDouble * 100) % 100 == 0) {
formatter.setMaximumFractionDigits(0);
}
return formatter.format(priceAsDouble);
}
Couple bits to point out:
Math.round(priceAsDouble * 100) % 100
is just working around the inaccuracies of doubles/floats. Basically just checking if we round to the hundreds place (maybe this is a U.S. bias) are there remaining cents. setMaximumFractionDigits()
methodWhatever your logic for determining whether or not the decimals should get truncated, setMaximumFractionDigits()
should get used.
We will usually need to do the inverse, if your json money field is an float, it may come as 3.1 , 3.15 or just 3.
In this case you may need to round it for proper display (and to be able to use a mask on an input field later):
floatvalue = 200.0; // it may be 200, 200.3 or 200.37, BigDecimal will take care
Locale locale = new Locale("en", "US");
NumberFormat currencyFormatter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(locale);
BigDecimal valueAsBD = BigDecimal.valueOf(value);
valueAsBD.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP); // add digits to match .00 pattern
System.out.println(currencyFormatter.format(amount));
If you want work on currencies, you have to use BigDecimal class. The problem is, there's no way to store some float numbers in memory (eg. you can store 5.3456, but not 5.3455), which can effects in bad calculations.
There's an nice article how to cooperate with BigDecimal and currencies:
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-06-2001/jw-0601-cents.html
Format from 1000000.2 to 1 000 000,20
private static final DecimalFormat DF = new DecimalFormat();
public static String toCurrency(Double d) {
if (d == null || "".equals(d) || "NaN".equals(d)) {
return " - ";
}
BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(d);
bd = bd.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
DecimalFormatSymbols symbols = DF.getDecimalFormatSymbols();
symbols.setGroupingSeparator(' ');
String ret = DF.format(bd) + "";
if (ret.indexOf(",") == -1) {
ret += ",00";
}
if (ret.split(",")[1].length() != 2) {
ret += "0";
}
return ret;
}
this best way to do that.
public static String formatCurrency(String amount) {
DecimalFormat formatter = new DecimalFormat("###,###,##0.00");
return formatter.format(Double.parseDouble(amount));
}
100 -> "100.00"
100.1 -> "100.10"
This post really helped me to finally get what I want. So I just wanted to contribute my code here to help others. Here is my code with some explanation.
The following code:
double moneyWithDecimals = 5.50;
double moneyNoDecimals = 5.00;
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(moneyWithDecimals));
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(moneyNoDecimals));
Will return:
€ 5,-
€ 5,50
The actual jeroensFormat() method:
public String jeroensFormat(double money)//Wants to receive value of type double
{
NumberFormat dutchFormat = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
money = money;
String twoDecimals = dutchFormat.format(money); //Format to string
if(tweeDecimalen.matches(".*[.]...[,]00$")){
String zeroDecimals = twoDecimals.substring(0, twoDecimals.length() -3);
return zeroDecimals;
}
if(twoDecimals.endsWith(",00")){
String zeroDecimals = String.format("€ %.0f,-", money);
return zeroDecimals; //Return with ,00 replaced to ,-
}
else{ //If endsWith != ,00 the actual twoDecimals string can be returned
return twoDecimals;
}
}
The method displayJeroensFormat that calls the method jeroensFormat()
public void displayJeroensFormat()//@parameter double:
{
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(10.5)); //Example for two decimals
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(10.95)); //Example for two decimals
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(10.00)); //Example for zero decimals
System.out.println(jeroensFormat(100.000)); //Example for zero decimals
}
Will have the following output:
€ 10,50
€ 10,95
€ 10,-
€ 100.000 (In Holland numbers bigger than € 999,- and wit no decimals don't have ,-)
This code uses your current currency. In my case that's Holland so the formatted string for me will be different than for someone in the US.
Just watch the last 3 characters of those numbers. My code has an if statement to check if the last 3 characters are equal to ",00". To use this in the US you might have to change that to ".00" if it doesn't work already.
This is what I did, using an integer to represent the amount as cents instead:
public static String format(int moneyInCents) {
String format;
Number value;
if (moneyInCents % 100 == 0) {
format = "%d";
value = moneyInCents / 100;
} else {
format = "%.2f";
value = moneyInCents / 100.0;
}
return String.format(Locale.US, format, value);
}
The problem with NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance()
is that sometimes you really want $20 to be $20, it just looks better than $20.00.
If anyone finds a better way of doing this, using NumberFormat, I'm all ears.
I was crazy enough to write my own function:
This will convert integer to currency format (can be modified for decimals as well):
String getCurrencyFormat(int v){
String toReturn = "";
String s = String.valueOf(v);
int length = s.length();
for(int i = length; i >0 ; --i){
toReturn += s.charAt(i - 1);
if((i - length - 1) % 3 == 0 && i != 1) toReturn += ',';
}
return "$" + new StringBuilder(toReturn).reverse().toString();
}
public static String formatPrice(double value) {
DecimalFormat formatter;
if (value<=99999)
formatter = new DecimalFormat("###,###,##0.00");
else
formatter = new DecimalFormat("#,##,##,###.00");
return formatter.format(value);
}
