I really really don’t understand whats happening here.
I’ve setup an example calculation, and shown the two values I am calculating. Every search I have made to try and fix this all say that all you need to do is add’ | round(1)’. So what am I doing wrong here… Why are two floating numbers with the correct amount of decimal places resulting in a number with many, and after I have added ‘| round(1)’
In the example above all I want is the calculation to say 4.7, not 4.699999999999999
I am going to assume there is some basic thing I am not getting, adding or overlooking.
Yup, Im was sure this question has been asked many times before.
I checked out the link below and the final reply by @petro (a moderator) gave two solutions to ‘fix’ it.
1 Round the value – I thought that is what I was doing, so that post isn’t exactly relevant to my problem. or
2. Format it – I assume that means by adding ‘{:.1f}’.format(states…
I really don’t mean to be annoyingly pedantic, It’s just that the OP on the thread you linked was trying to modify the float not the round, which is what I was trying to do. @petro’s first fix suggestion is what I have been trying.
