Functions

func DollarsToPennies

func DollarsToPennies(dollars float64, roundUp bool) int

DollarsToPennies converts a floating point value in dollars to pennies. If `roundUp` is true any fractional value that is less than 1 penny will be rounded up and added as an additional penny, eg 13.001 -> 1301. If the dollars amount is negative, and there is a fractional amount remaining and roundUp is true, the fractional amount will be rounded to a penny and added negatively to the output value, eg (-13.001 -> -1301). Otherwise, if roundUp is false, that value will be discarded.

Example

fmt.Println(DollarsToPennies(19.136, true))

Output:

1914
