long startTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
float resultTime= (System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000;
System.out.println("Result time : " + resultTime);

The result is always a rounded value like 1.0 or 2.0.
How can I obtain an exact result like 1.234?

    float resultTime= (float)(System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000.0f;
