What is the relation to the tag "digital signal processing"? Can you explain any details concerning the question, please?

Thanks. I'm teaching a financial computing course and was looking for banker's output :-)

Be careful about rounding vs truncation. I do not know what is standard for banking purposes.

in the same scenario, could you please tell how to obtain 03.33??
x = 10/3;
sprintf('%05.2f', x)
compose("%05.2f", x)
num2str(x, '%05.2f')
