RE: DecimalFormat

["Xu, Weining" <Weining.Xu@xxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the confusion.

2.3287 should return 2.33.
2.3249 should return 2.32.

Basically I want 5 and up rounded up, 4 and below rounded down(truncated).

Thanks.

Xu, you originally said this:

That leads me to believe it truncates rather than rounds.  Maybe I'm not
udnerstanding this.  Does 2.3287 return 2.33 or 2.32?
