Formatting float number output

[barryjo]

Is there a way to globally set the output of printed floats to 2 decimal places?
I would rather not have to use..print('{:010.4f}'.format(x)) for each print statement.

I would rather not have to use..print('{:010.4f}'.format(x)) for each print statement.

This doesn't output the float to 2 decimal spaces

>>> from math import pi
>>> x = pi
>>> print('{:010.4f}'.format(x))
00003.1416

so what do you want exactly?

for each print statement.

Do you have that many print statements in your code? You could perhaps bury them into functions.

I think your suggestion to bury the print in a function might be the best. Thanks
