Have decimal amount, want to trim to 2 decimal places if present
4 answers
I have a decimal number which can be like the following:
189.182
I want to round this up to 2 decimal places, so the output would be the following:
189.19
Is there built in functionality for this in the Math class, or something else? I know the ceiling function exists but this doesn't seem to do what I want - it'll round to the nearest int, so just '189' in this case.
Multiply by 100, call ceiling, divide by 100 does what I think you are asking for
public static double RoundUp(double input, int places)
{
double multiplier = Math.Pow(10, Convert.ToDouble(places));
return Math.Ceiling(input * multiplier) / multiplier;
}
Usage would look like:
RoundUp(189.182, 2);
This works by shifting the decimal point right 2 places (so it is to the right of the last 8) then performing the ceiling operation, then shifting the decimal point back to its original position.
You can use:
n = System.Math.Ceiling (n * 100) / 100;
An explanation of the various rounding function can be found here.
How about
0.01 * ceil(100 * 189.182)
