I keep stumbling on the format specifiers for the printf() family of functions. What I want is to be able to print a double (or float) with a maximum given number of digits after the decimal point. If I use:

printf("%1.3f", 359.01335);
printf("%1.3f", 359.00999);

I get

359.013
359.010

Instead of the desired

359.013
359.01

Can anybody help me?
