RE: DecimalFormat

I run your code with double a = 5.345, b = 1.145, c = 2.645;

and the results:

was: 5.345 ,now: 5.34
was: 1.145 ,now: 1.15
was: 2.645 ,now: 2.65

So 5.345 was still not rounded right.  Why?

This worked for me.  Is a little bit of a run around.

public class Test {


//--------------------------------------------------
    public static void main(String args[]){
        new Test();
        System.exit(0);
    }

    public Test() {
       double a = 1.244;
       double b = 1.245;
       double c = 1.246;

       try {
         BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(a);
         BigDecimal bd1 = bd.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
         dsp("was: " + a + " ,now: " + bd1.toString());
         bd = new BigDecimal(b);
         bd1 = bd.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
         dsp("was: " + b + " ,now: " + bd1.toString());
         bd = new BigDecimal(c);
         bd1 = bd.setScale(2, BigDecimal.ROUND_HALF_UP);
         dsp("was: " + c + " ,now: " + bd1.toString());
         }
       catch(Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }
    }

  private void dsp(String s) { System.out.println(s); }

}
