Rails - Jun 2006 - pls help me regarding Maths round up function.....

Hi,

I have some values on my webpage displaying like
1.22333333333
2.33333344444
2.33377777777
etc.
Here I want to display values upto 2 decimal places correct.
i.e, 1.22333333333 should be dislayed as 1.22
     2.33333344444 should be dislayed as 2.33
     2.33777777777 should be dislayed as 2.34
& so on....

How to do this in ruby?????

Is there any function???

Thanx in advance.
Prash

Hey Prash, this will round to a specific number of decimal pts:

	def round_float(float_num,dec)
		(float_num*(10**dec)).round.to_f / (10**dec).to_f
	end

	round_float(1.238, 2) => 1.24

cheers,
Jodi

The most elegant way is facets/round_at

Check out http://facets.rubyforge.org/doc/api/
Specifically 
http://facets.rubyforge.org/doc/api/classes/Float.html#M000201

  require facet/round_at
  4.55555.round_at(2)    #=> 4.56
