[Answer]-Save with multipe digits bit show two

✅

The answer is actually twofold.

How to store the data?

Do not store it as a CharField or something. Just store it as a DecimalField or a FloatField.
```
models.DecimalField(..., max_digits=20, decimal_places=10)   
```
How to show only two decimals?

Use the template tag floatformat that takes the full value as input and outputs a decimal rounded with the number of decimals you want. In your case that would be {{ value|floatformat:2 }}.

Note that floats and decimal fields are not the same.

The easiest way, if the datatype doesn’t matter, is to store it as text in the database and then just parse the amount when you show it.

>>> silly = '12345.6789098765'
>>> silly[:silly.rfind('.')+3]
'12345.67'

Slightly more advanced; assuming you don’t need precision:

>>> "{0:0.2f}".format(float(silly))
'12345.68'
