I have the following code. I would like to have it such that if price_result equals an integer, let's say 10, then I would like to add two decimal places. So 10 would be 10.00. Or if it equals 10.6 would be 10.60. Not sure how to do this.
price_result = parseFloat(test_var.split('$')[1].slice(0,-1));

Use the toFixed() method to format a number to 2 decimal places, e.g. num. toFixed(2) . The toFixed method takes a parameter, representing how many digits should appear after the decimal and returns the result.
format("%. 2f", 1.23456); This will format the floating point number 1.23456 up-to 2 decimal places, because we have used two after decimal point in formatting instruction %.
format() with “{:. 2f}” as string and float as a number. Call print and it will print the float with 2 decimal places.
To parse a float with 2 decimal places:Pass the float to the parseFloat() function. Use the toFixed() method to format the float to 2 decimal places. The toFixed method will return a string representation of the number formatted to 2 decimal places.
You can use toFixed() to do that
var twoPlacedFloat = parseFloat(yourString).toFixed(2) If you need performance (like in games):
Math.round(number * 100) / 100 It's about 100 times as fast as parseFloat(number.toFixed(2))
