It is used to sets the floatfield format flag for the str stream to fixed. When floatfield is set to fixed, floating-point values are written using fixed-point notation: the value is represented with exactly as many digits in the decimal part as specified by the precision field (precision) and with no exponent part.
C++98The floatfield format flag is both a selective and a toggle flag: it can take one, both or none of the following values as shown below −
Flag value Effect when set fixed write floating-point values in fixed-point notation scientific write floating-point values in scientific notation. (none) write floating-point values in default floating-point notation. C++11The floatfield format flag is both a selective and a toggle flag: it can take any of the following values, or none as shown below −
Flag value Effect when set fixed write floating-point values in fixed-point notation. scientific write floating-point values in scientific notation. hexfloatwrite floating-point values in hexadecimal format.
The value of this is the same as (fixed|scientific)
Following is the declaration for std::fixed function.
ios_base& fixed (ios_base& str);Parameters
str − Stream object whose format flag is affected.
Return ValueIt returns Argument str.
ExceptionsBasic guarantee − if an exception is thrown, str is in a valid state.
Data racesIt modifies str. Concurrent access to the same stream object may cause data races.
ExampleIn below example explains about std::fixed function.
#include <iostream> int main () { double a = 3.1415926534; double b = 2006.0; double c = 1.0e-10; std::cout.precision(5); std::cout << "default:\n"; std::cout << a << '\n' << b << '\n' << c << '\n'; std::cout << '\n'; std::cout << "fixed:\n" << std::fixed; std::cout << a << '\n' << b << '\n' << c << '\n'; std::cout << '\n'; std::cout << "scientific:\n" << std::scientific; std::cout << a << '\n' << b << '\n' << c << '\n'; return 0; }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
default: 3.1416 2006 1e-010 fixed: 3.14159 2006.00000 0.00000 scientific: 3.14159e+000 2.00600e+003 1.00000e-010
