Round to 2 decimal places [duplicate]

Don’t use doubles. You can lose some precision. Here’s a general purpose function.

public static double round(double unrounded, int precision, int roundingMode)
{
    BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(unrounded);
    BigDecimal rounded = bd.setScale(precision, roundingMode);
    return rounded.doubleValue();
}

You can call it with

round(yourNumber, 3, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);

“precision” being the number of decimal points you desire.
