I am trying to make just the heights 1 decimal Ex: 4.0 3.0 55.0
You shouldn't be reading in the data into a double or an integer in ddmmyy format anyway. What happens when the date is entered as 061008, which is today's date? That leading 0 is dropped in the output. If you store the date as an integer or a string, fixed << setprecision (1) won't have an effect. A date really isn't a double anyway, so store it as a string.
