The problem is that the binary representations of floating point numbers are actually imperfect representations. 0.01 is actually 0.0099999999776482582 3.21 is actually 3.2100000381469727 Therefore if I try to add the float representations of 0.01 and 3.21, I get an inaccurate result of 3.22000003812 instead of 3.22. By that logic, the act of rounding would never produce an accurate result. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-12-18 03:05:04
