always show 2 decimal places python code example

Example 1: format to 2 or n decimal places python

num = 123.4567
formatted_num = '{0:.2f}'.format(num) # to 2 decimal places
# formatted_num = '123.46'

Example 2: how to print a float with only 2 digits after decimal in python

#to round floats in Python you can use the "round" function. ex:

tax = 34.4563
tax = round(tax, 2)

#the number 2 at the end is how many digits are rounded.

#the variable "tax" would now be: 34.46
