fixed
Specifies that a floating-point number is displayed in fixed-decimal notation.
ios_base& fixed(
ios_base& _Str
);
Parameters
- _Str
A reference to an object of type ios_base, or to a type that inherits from ios_base.
Return Value
A reference to the object from which _Str is derived.
Remarks
fixed is the default display notation for floating-point numbers. scientific causes floating-point numbers to be displayed using scientific notation.
The manipulator effectively calls _Str.setf(ios_base::fixed, ios_base::floatfield), and then returns _Str.
Example
// ios_fixed.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <iostream>
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
float i = 1.1F;
cout << i << endl; // fixed is the default
cout << scientific << i << endl;
cout.precision( 1 );
cout << fixed << i << endl;
}
