fmt.Printf("% gn", c).
}

Returns 11.100000000000001 yet i anticipate 11.1

What am i doing incorrect?

Hi @wdantuma :slight_smile:! In Go if you to desire layout appropriately a float number with a particular variety of decimals, you require to utilize %. Nf where N is the variety of numbers you desire.
In your instance adjustment:

with fmt.Printf("%.1 fn", c) The formatter % g stands for the float number with its optimum variety of substantial numbers, as well as in your instance you’re utilizing 2 float64 so Go loads all the ideal 14 numbers instantly

That’s simply drift …

If you require exact outcomes, simply do not utilize drifts.
