[SOLVED] Decimal Places - Is this possible?

[dbashby]

my program uses

DecimalFormat bodymass = new DecimalFormat("#0.0");

So I have 1 decimal place, however I have another calculation within my program that I want to calculate to 2 decimal places.

DecimalFormat bodymass = new DecimalFormat("#0.00");

Is this possible?

I would use two separate DecimalFormat variables here, then use whichever one is needed at the time of its need. YMMV.

[dbashby]

I just forgot to change the variable in the code posted

well the

DecimalFormat bodymass = new DecimalFormat("#0.0");

this is in the main body of the program

the second decimal I want within

private void cmdConvertActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {

but i want it to be to 2 places

DecimalFormat measurement = new DecimalFormat("#0.0");

So it is possible?

[Fubarable]

It should work and if it doesn't it likely has nothing to do with using different decimal formatters. Have you tried it? What happens when you do?

[dbashby]

I have tried it and yes it worked

Thanks
