How can a number be rounded to the nearest hundredth (x.xx) in use strict or use cgi?

Math::Round is great for this. The following code will round a number to the nearest hundredth. For example, it will round 9.12345678 to 9.12

use Math::Round;
my $number = 9.12345678;
my $output = nearest(.01,$number);

hmm I just realized that I've already recommend this module to you once before at

[webmasterworld.com...]

yes, and I tried alternating the script to 0.01 instead of one and that didn't work

U can always do it yourself, multiply by 100, convert to integer, convert back to float and divide by 100.

or use the string print function:

$x = sprintf("%0.2f",$x);
