How to Round Numbers with f-strings in Python
Round numbers directly inside f-string expressions using the built-in round() function for clean, readable output formatting.
def main():
# Values to format with expression-based rounding
price = 19.995
tax_rate = 0.0825
distance = 1234.56789
# Round inside the f-string expression using round()
print(f"Price rounded to cents: ${round(price, 2)}")
# Combine rounding with arithmetic inside the expression
