a way to set decimal points limit?

[cracksevi]

for example if decimal point is limited to 2 , it must show the number like 3476.88 or 42354387.15
hope u got what i meant...
cuz set precision limits the whole number...not only floating part
(sorry for bad english)

What do you mean it limits the whole number?
How is the number in the code below limited by setprecision then?

double f;
   f=4456789123.123456;
   cout.setf(ios::fixed);
   cout << setprecision(2) << f << endl;

Is there not a scale function of some sort, or is that how you do it? "setprecision(scale)" ?

Just curious.

i mean...
if for example the result is 34235.45346 it must be shown as if i set the limit as 2 : 4235.45

The code above does just that.

hmm....then i need ios:fixed too for it...
cuz i tried only setprecision as i remember..
and it was giving me results like 4e + 001 or sth..
