I am currently building a mock banking app that can display the history of transactions on an account.

Part of a transaction is, naturally, the amount.

Amounts are stored as doubles in my program which leads to many of them being displayed with way too many decimal points (for example £500.000000 instead of £500.00).

When forming a transaction, the amount is simply converted to a string alongside timestamps and transaction types.

I need a way so that the double can be stored without the extra decimal places. It doesn't matter if it is converted to two decimal places before or after becoming a string.

I cannot use setprecision(2) here because I am not writing out the transaction to the console yet.

```
Transaction::Transaction(string desc, string timestamp, double value) {

    this->desc = desc;
    this->timestamp = timestamp;
    this->value = value;
};

string Transaction::toString() {
fullString = "-- " + desc + ": -\x9c" + to_string(value) + " on " + timestamp;
}

```
