[FIXED] How can limit a certain number of decimal places being shown without rounding?

Issue

I would like to be able to limit the amount of decimal places that are shown from a print function without any sort of rounding system

v = 8.836333333333339

print ('%.2f' % v)

This code will print the value of v to two decimal places but also rounds it up or down, how could I make it stop this rounding please?

Solution

You could process it as a string:

v = 8.836333333333339
s = str(v)
print s[:s.find('.')+3]

# prints 8.83
