Message:
Float
Posted by Saurabh Ganguly on July 02, 2001 at 3:42 AM
Hi I am facing a problem in conversion os String to float.So I thought of contacting you . I have written the following code for conversion from String to float and then limiting to 2 numbers after decimal. DecimalFormat numformat = new DecimalFormat(); numformat.applyPattern("#00.00"); String tmpqty=numformat.format(Float.parseFloat(String); totalQty=totalQty+Float.parseFloat(tmpqty); totalQty is a float quantity. But what happens is that I am not getting exact results.I mean if the result is .756 then its coming as .76. SO I want a solution cos it can lead to calculation differences. Hoping for a positive reply. Cheers Saurabh
