Computer systems can provide an arithmetic that gives
|
||
|
the results that people expect, instead of the results
|
||
|
that binary floating point calculations give (see the
|
||
|
sidebar on the right for an example). This is not
|
||
|
available in Java today, so a decimal floating point
|
||
|
arithmetic is needed.
