Thread: Please help, need user to decide how many decimal points to print.

I am trying to have a user input a number, 5 for example, and then prints a number i have with that many decimal points.

example:

user types: 5

prints: 1.10293

(i chose random numbers here, but has 5 decimal points)

I only know how to do this printf("%.5lf", mynumber);

and that would print 5, but always 5.

i want it to print the amount the user puts in.

thank you for any help or advice
