whoa..rounding error uncovered
Also, "round(X,N)" gives an error - almost like it couldn't have a 2nd parameter
Great problem, not too hard but required a bit of thinking
It took me a long time (before reading the comments !!!) to figure out that for instance the result for rem(135.01,100) is not 35.01 but is 35.009999999999991.
Can anyone help me with why the issue is there and how to solve it (not by adding 1e-3)!?
good job! i enjoyed solving this code
I cannot understand this problem. what means?
Why function roundn is undefined?
A lot of people are adding an amount smaller than a cent to the input to get around floating point issues. There are two other ways to get around this. One is to make the last cent 0.00999 instead. The other is to change your comparison line to compare against a slightly smaller/larger value.
my first floating point issue, yay
