This works:
// Program 2.6 Experimenting with floating point output
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
 float value1 = 0.1f;
 float value2 = 2.1f;
 value1 -= 0.09f;                       // Should be 0.01
 value2 -= 2.09f;                       // Should be 0.01
 cout << setiosflags(ios::fixed | ios::showpoint | ios::right);   // NB
 cout << setprecision(14);     // Change to fixed notation
 cout << value1 - value2 << endl;       // Should output zero
 cout << setiosflags(ios::scientific);				  // NB
 cout << setprecision(5) ; // Return to scientific notation
 cout << value1 - value2 << endl;       // Should output zero
 return 0;
}
