I made a program to calculate the average monthly rain fall and the total rain fall from data using a .txt file. When the program calculates the date the average rainfall output always show a number with two decimal places like 3.27 but I want this output: 3.27000 or the output will be 2.87 instead of 2.87429 I tried set precision, didn't work. How can I a number with 5 decimal places?
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
ifstream inputFile;
int numberOfMonths = 0;
double rainFallPerMonth;
double totalRainFall = 0.0;
double averageMonthlyRainFall;
string startingMonth;
string endingMonth;
inputFile.open("Rainfall.txt");
inputFile >> startingMonth;
inputFile >> endingMonth;
while (inputFile >> rainFallPerMonth)
{ totalRainFall += rainFallPerMonth;
numberOfMonths ++;
}
averageMonthlyRainFall = totalRainFall / numberOfMonths;
inputFile.close();
cout << "During the months of " << startingMonth << "-" << endingMonth << " the total";
cout << "\nrainfall was " << totalRainFall << " inches and the average monthly";
cout << fixed << showpoint << setprecision(5);
cout << "\nrainfall was " << averageMonthlyRainFall << " inches.";
return 0;
}
