241 PointsChange radius to 1 decimal place
When running my radius code on Xcode, how do I get it to 1 decimal place? "A ball with the radius of 14.500000 inches." This is what my code looks like, and it will not let me pass (presumably) because of the amount of "0's" after the 14.5

241 PointsThis is the code that I am using...
float radius = 14.5;
printf("a ball with the radius of %f.\n", radius);

18,015 PointsVery strange, although I passed with this code:
float radius = 14.5;
printf("A ball with a radius of %f inches", radius);
It's almost the exact same thing, but try it. Maybe refresh your page, because it might be a bug.

Courses Plus Student 2,669 Pointsprintf("a ball with the radius of %f.\n", radius); you should have written inches instead of \n. The editor expects you to write the code exactly in the manner the question has been provided.
