I want to use "math.sqrt" and my output should have 4 decimal after point even for numbers like "4". is there any func or way?!
I used "round(num_sqrt, 4)" but it didn't work.
my input is like:
1
2
3
19
output must be:
1.0000
1.4142
1.7320
4.3588
and my output is:
1.0
1.4142
1.7320
4.3588
Try this
from decimal import Decimal
import math
# example with sqrt function
y = Decimal(math.sqrt(4))
z = round(y, 4)
print(z) # output 2.0000
# First we take a float and convert it to a decimal
x = Decimal(16.0/7)
print(x)
# Then we round it to 4 places
output = round(x,4)
print(output) # outpun 2.2857
Try this if you really need unnecessary zeros:
def format_floats(reference, values):
formatted_values = []
for i in range(len(values)):
length = len(str(reference)[str(reference).find("."):])-1
new_float = str(round(values[i], length))
new_float += "0"*(len(str(reference))-len(new_float))
formatted_values.append(new_float)
return formatted_values
if __name__ == '__main__':
reference = 0.12345
values = [1.04, 2.045, 2.0]
print(format_floats(reference, values))
output: ['1.04000', '2.04500', '2.00000']
In case
x = 0.898558 #float with zero prefix
I tried
from decimal import Decimal
x = 0.898558
print(Decimal(x))
Output:
0.898557999999999967855046634213067591190338134765625
I think i can do something and i tried
x = 0.898558
print('%.2f' % x)
Ouput:
0.89
How i can remove the 0 digit,i want something like this 89
You could do this by converting your int to a string and splitting by the decimal point.
x = str(x).split('.')[1]
Its just a string, so you can slice off the bit you want:
print( ('%.2f' % x)[2:] )
Multiply by 100, then convert to int:
y = int(x*100)
EDIT: This is WRONG. See discussion in the comments.
I have a long list of Decimals and that I have to adjust by factors of 10, 100, 1000,..... 1000000 depending on certain conditions. When I multiply them there is sometimes a useless trailing zero (though not always) that I want to get rid of. For example...
from decimal import Decimal
# outputs 25.0, PROBLEM! I would like it to output 25
print Decimal('2.5') * 10
# outputs 2567.8000, PROBLEM! I would like it to output 2567.8
print Decimal('2.5678') * 1000
Is there a function that tells the decimal object to drop these insignificant zeros? The only way I can think of doing this is to convert to a string and replace them using regular expressions.
Should probably mention that I am using python 2.6.5
EDIT
senderle's fine answer made me realize that I occasionally get a number like 250.0 which when normalized produces 2.5E+2. I guess in these cases I could try to sort them out and convert to a int
You can use the normalize method to remove extra precision.
>>> print decimal.Decimal('5.500')
5.500
>>> print decimal.Decimal('5.500').normalize()
5.5
To avoid stripping zeros to the left of the decimal point, you could do this:
def normalize_fraction(d):
normalized = d.normalize()
sign, digits, exponent = normalized.as_tuple()
if exponent > 0:
return decimal.Decimal((sign, digits + (0,) * exponent, 0))
else:
return normalized
Or more compactly, using quantize as suggested by user7116:
def normalize_fraction(d):
normalized = d.normalize()
sign, digit, exponent = normalized.as_tuple()
return normalized if exponent <= 0 else normalized.quantize(1)
You could also use to_integral() as shown here but I think using as_tuple this way is more self-documenting.
I tested these both against a few cases; please leave a comment if you find something that doesn't work.
>>> normalize_fraction(decimal.Decimal('55.5'))
Decimal('55.5')
>>> normalize_fraction(decimal.Decimal('55.500'))
Decimal('55.5')
>>> normalize_fraction(decimal.Decimal('55500'))
Decimal('55500')
>>> normalize_fraction(decimal.Decimal('555E2'))
Decimal('55500')
There's probably a better way of doing this, but you could use .rstrip('0').rstrip('.') to achieve the result that you want.
Using your numbers as an example:
>>> s = str(Decimal('2.5') * 10)
>>> print s.rstrip('0').rstrip('.') if '.' in s else s
25
>>> s = str(Decimal('2.5678') * 1000)
>>> print s.rstrip('0').rstrip('.') if '.' in s else s
2567.8
And here's the fix for the problem that #gerrit pointed out in the comments:
>>> s = str(Decimal('1500'))
>>> print s.rstrip('0').rstrip('.') if '.' in s else s
1500
Answer from the Decimal FAQ in the documentation:
>>> def remove_exponent(d):
... return d.quantize(Decimal(1)) if d == d.to_integral() else d.normalize()
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('5.00'))
Decimal('5')
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('5.500'))
Decimal('5.5')
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('5E+3'))
Decimal('5000')
Answer is mentioned in FAQ (https://docs.python.org/2/library/decimal.html#decimal-faq) but does not explain things.
To drop trailing zeros for fraction part you should use normalize:
>>> Decimal('100.2000').normalize()
Decimal('100.2')
>> Decimal('0.2000').normalize()
Decimal('0.2')
But this works different for numbers with leading zeros in sharp part:
>>> Decimal('100.0000').normalize()
Decimal('1E+2')
In this case we should use `to_integral':
>>> Decimal('100.000').to_integral()
Decimal('100')
So we could check if there's a fraction part:
>>> Decimal('100.2000') == Decimal('100.2000').to_integral()
False
>>> Decimal('100.0000') == Decimal('100.0000').to_integral()
True
And use appropriate method then:
def remove_exponent(num):
return num.to_integral() if num == num.to_integral() else num.normalize()
Try it:
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('100.2000'))
Decimal('100.2')
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('100.0000'))
Decimal('100')
>>> remove_exponent(Decimal('0.2000'))
Decimal('0.2')
Now we're done.
Use the format specifier %g. It seems remove to trailing zeros.
>>> "%g" % (Decimal('2.5') * 10)
'25'
>>> "%g" % (Decimal('2.5678') * 1000)
'2567.8'
It also works without the Decimal function
>>> "%g" % (2.5 * 10)
'25'
>>> "%g" % (2.5678 * 1000)
'2567.8'
I ended up doing this:
import decimal
def dropzeros(number):
mynum = decimal.Decimal(number).normalize()
# e.g 22000 --> Decimal('2.2E+4')
return mynum.__trunc__() if not mynum % 1 else float(mynum)
print dropzeros(22000.000)
22000
print dropzeros(2567.8000)
2567.8
note: casting the return value as a string will limit you to 12 significant digits
Slightly modified version of A-IV's answer
NOTE that Decimal('0.99999999999999999999999999995').normalize() will round to Decimal('1')
def trailing(s: str, char="0"):
return len(s) - len(s.rstrip(char))
def decimal_to_str(value: decimal.Decimal):
"""Convert decimal to str
* Uses exponential notation when there are more than 4 trailing zeros
* Handles decimal.InvalidOperation
"""
# to_integral_value() removes decimals
if value == value.to_integral_value():
try:
value = value.quantize(decimal.Decimal(1))
except decimal.InvalidOperation:
pass
uncast = str(value)
# use exponential notation if there are more that 4 zeros
return str(value.normalize()) if trailing(uncast) > 4 else uncast
else:
# normalize values with decimal places
return str(value.normalize())
# or str(value).rstrip('0') if rounding edgecases are a concern
You could use :g to achieve this:
'{:g}'.format(3.140)
gives
'3.14'
This should work:
'{:f}'.format(decimal.Decimal('2.5') * 10).rstrip('0').rstrip('.')
Just to show a different possibility, I used to_tuple() to achieve the same result.
def my_normalize(dec):
"""
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("12.500"))
Decimal('12.5')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("-0.12500"))
Decimal('-0.125')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("0.125"))
Decimal('0.125')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("0.00125"))
Decimal('0.00125')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("125.00"))
Decimal('125')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("12500"))
Decimal('12500')
>>> my_normalize(Decimal("0.000"))
Decimal('0')
"""
if dec is None:
return None
sign, digs, exp = dec.as_tuple()
for i in list(reversed(digs)):
if exp >= 0 or i != 0:
break
exp += 1
digs = digs[:-1]
if not digs and exp < 0:
exp = 0
return Decimal((sign, digs, exp))
Why not use modules 10 from a multiple of 10 to check if there is remainder? No remainder means you can force int()
if (x * 10) % 10 == 0:
x = int(x)
x = 2/1
Output: 2
x = 3/2
Output: 1.5
I have big integers in database (numeric(24,0)). And I want to convert this number to "human readable" format. I have function:
def from_int(value, precision):
fprec = "%." + str(precision) + "f"
return fprec % (Decimal(value) * (Decimal(10)**(-1*precision)))
And it works:
from_int(1000000, 6)
'1.000000'
from_int(1000000, 8)
'0.01000000'
from_int(1000000, 12)
'0.000001000000'
from_int(1000000, 2)
'10000.00'
but for:
from_int(19999999999999999, 2)
'200000000000000.00'
How to set precision without rounding?
Formatting with %f converts the number to floating point losing precision. Instead use str:
def from_int(value, precision):
return str(Decimal(value) * Decimal(10)**(-precision))
The problem is in the %f construct that expects a float. So even if you compute everything in decimal, you have a nasty float conversion at the end => so the rounding issue. I think you could just write :
def from_int(value, precision):
return str((Decimal(value) * (Decimal(10)**(-1*precision))))
I tested it on your values and it gives correct results.
If all you want is a string representation, you may be able to get away with something like this:
>>> ('%%.%df' % 2) % 2.445
'2.44'
so in your original code:
def from_int(value, precision):
return ('%%.%df' % precision) % value
EDIT:
To deal with precision issue, it's indeed simpler to use Decimal type, and the quantize method:
>>> d = decimal.Decimal(19999999999999999)
>>> prec = 2
>>> str(d.quantize(decimal.Decimal(10) ** -prec))
'19999999999999999.00'
>>>
ref: How can I format a decimal to always show 2 decimal places?
EDIT: Using the Decimal type, you can shift decimal places without rounding:
>>> str(d * (decimal.Decimal(10) ** -prec))
'199999999999999.99'
How do I get the numbers after a decimal point?
For example, if I have 5.55, how do i get .55?
5.55 % 1
Keep in mind this won't help you with floating point rounding problems. I.e., you may get:
0.550000000001
Or otherwise a little off the 0.55 you are expecting.
Use modf:
>>> import math
>>> frac, whole = math.modf(2.5)
>>> frac
0.5
>>> whole
2.0
What about:
a = 1.3927278749291
b = a - int(a)
b
>> 0.39272787492910011
Or, using numpy:
import numpy
a = 1.3927278749291
b = a - numpy.fix(a)
Using the decimal module from the standard library, you can retain the original precision and avoid floating point rounding issues:
>>> from decimal import Decimal
>>> Decimal('4.20') % 1
Decimal('0.20')
As kindall notes in the comments, you'll have to convert native floats to strings first.
An easy approach for you:
number_dec = str(number-int(number))[1:]
Try Modulo:
5.55%1 = 0.54999999999999982
To make it work with both positive and negative numbers:
try abs(x)%1. For negative numbers, without with abs, it will go wrong.
5.55 % 1
output 0.5499999999999998
-5.55 % 1
output 0.4500000000000002
import math
orig = 5.55
whole = math.floor(orig) # whole = 5.0
frac = orig - whole # frac = 0.55
similar to the accepted answer, even easier approach using strings would be
def number_after_decimal(number1):
number = str(number1)
if 'e-' in number: # scientific notation
number_dec = format(float(number), '.%df'%(len(number.split(".")[1].split("e-")[0])+int(number.split('e-')[1])))
elif "." in number: # quick check if it is decimal
number_dec = number.split(".")[1]
return number_dec
>>> n=5.55
>>> if "." in str(n):
... print "."+str(n).split(".")[-1]
...
.55
Just using simple operator division '/' and floor division '//' you can easily get the fraction part of any given float.
number = 5.55
result = (number/1) - (number//1)
print(result)
Sometimes trailing zeros matter
In [4]: def split_float(x):
...: '''split float into parts before and after the decimal'''
...: before, after = str(x).split('.')
...: return int(before), (int(after)*10 if len(after)==1 else int(after))
...:
...:
In [5]: split_float(105.10)
Out[5]: (105, 10)
In [6]: split_float(105.01)
Out[6]: (105, 1)
In [7]: split_float(105.12)
Out[7]: (105, 12)
Another example using modf
from math import modf
number = 1.0124584
# [0] decimal, [1] integer
result = modf(number)
print(result[0])
# output = 0124584
print(result[1])
# output = 1
This is a solution I tried:
num = 45.7234
(whole, frac) = (int(num), int(str(num)[(len(str(int(num)))+1):]))
Float numbers are not stored in decimal (base10) format. Have a read through the python documentation on this to satisfy yourself why. Therefore, to get a base10 representation from a float is not advisable.
Now there are tools which allow storage of numeric data in decimal format. Below is an example using the Decimal library.
from decimal import *
x = Decimal('0.341343214124443151466')
str(x)[-2:] == '66' # True
y = 0.341343214124443151466
str(y)[-2:] == '66' # False
Use floor and subtract the result from the original number:
>> import math #gives you floor.
>> t = 5.55 #Give a variable 5.55
>> x = math.floor(t) #floor returns t rounded down to 5..
>> z = t - x #z = 5.55 - 5 = 0.55
Example:
import math
x = 5.55
print((math.floor(x*100)%100))
This is will give you two numbers after the decimal point, 55 from that example. If you need one number you reduce by 10 the above calculations or increase depending on how many numbers you want after the decimal.
import math
x = 1245342664.6
print( (math.floor(x*1000)%1000) //100 )
It definitely worked
Another option would be to use the re module with re.findall or re.search:
import re
def get_decimcal(n: float) -> float:
return float(re.search(r'\.\d+', str(n)).group(0))
def get_decimcal_2(n: float) -> float:
return float(re.findall(r'\.\d+', str(n))[0])
def get_int(n: float) -> int:
return int(n)
print(get_decimcal(5.55))
print(get_decimcal_2(5.55))
print(get_int(5.55))
Output
0.55
0.55

How to get rid of additional floating numbers in python subtraction?
You can use this:
number = 5.55
int(str(number).split('.')[1])
This is only if you want toget the first decimal
print(int(float(input()) * 10) % 10)
Or you can try this
num = float(input())
b = num - int(num)
c = b * 10
print(int(c))
Using math module
speed of this has to be tested
from math import floor
def get_decimal(number):
'''returns number - floor of number'''
return number-floor(number)
Example:
n = 765.126357123
get_decimal(n)
0.12635712300004798
def fractional_part(numerator, denominator):
# Operate with numerator and denominator to
# keep just the fractional part of the quotient
if denominator == 0:
return 0
else:
return (numerator/ denominator)-(numerator // denominator)
print(fractional_part(5, 5)) # Should be 0
print(fractional_part(5, 4)) # Should be 0.25
print(fractional_part(5, 3)) # Should be 0.66...
print(fractional_part(5, 2)) # Should be 0.5
print(fractional_part(5, 0)) # Should be 0
print(fractional_part(0, 5)) # Should be 0
Easier if the input is a string, we can use split()
decimal = input("Input decimal number: ") #123.456
# split 123.456 by dot = ['123', '456']
after_coma = decimal.split('.')[1]
# because only index 1 is taken then '456'
print(after_coma) # '456'
if you want to make a number type
print(int(after_coma)) # 456
a = 12.587
b = float('0.' + str(a).split('.')[-1])
What about:
a = 1.234
b = a - int(a)
length = len(str(a))
round(b, length-2)
Output:
print(b)
0.23399999999999999
round(b, length-2)
0.234
Since the round is sent to a the length of the string of decimals ('0.234'), we can just minus 2 to not count the '0.', and figure out the desired number of decimal points. This should work most times, unless you have lots of decimal places and the rounding error when calculating b interferes with the second parameter of round.
You may want to try this:
your_num = 5.55
n = len(str(int(your_num)))
float('0' + str(your_num)[n:])
It will return 0.55.
number=5.55
decimal=(number-int(number))
decimal_1=round(decimal,2)
print(decimal)
print(decimal_1)
output: 0.55
See what I often do to obtain numbers after the decimal point in python
3:
a=1.22
dec=str(a).split('.')
dec= int(dec[1])
If you are using pandas:
df['decimals'] = df['original_number'].mod(1)
