Trailing zeros in javascript

Is there a way to add trailing zeros to a number in javascript?

For example: 47.0 instead of 47 or 0.0 instead of 0

when I return the numbers in a json, the zeros disapper.

I need them to be numbers and not strings so .toFixed(2) doesn't help.

Thanks!

No. What you want is a specific presentation, which most simple types has no concept of.

Anyway, when serialized into a JSON request or response it would still be converted to a string, but the receiving end shouldn't care at all if it's represented as 46.0, 46.00 or 46.000 unless it has the "" around it.

The number 47.0 is the same number as 47, so the only way to change its representation is to make it a string.
