Arithmetic operation on arrays in Python

Question

While performing arithmetic operations on arrays, and the output is an integer why does the output display 1. or 11. instead of 1.0 or 11.0? Is there a way to display the integer with the floating-point value such as instead of 1. or 11. as 1.0 or 11.0?

Answer 1

In Python, you can format floating numbers to a specific decimal places like this:

pi = 3.1415926
formatter = "{0:.2f}"
output = formatter.format(pi)  # 3.14

Answer 2

Convert it to float

my_list = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
for element in my_list:
    print( float(element) )

you will get the "1.0" "2.0" and e.t.c

You can do it on any integer
