Accurate floating point number calculation in JavaScript
In JavaScript, since floating point is defined with IEEE754,there will be some accuracy issues while doing floating point number arithmetic. Here is a function which can resolve the accuracy issue. var calc = function(num1,operator,num2,len){ var numFixs = function(num){ var arr = num.toFixed(len).toString().split('.'); return parseInt(arr.join('')); } switch(operator){...

Why 0.1+0.2 != 0.3
In programming languages such as JavaScript, c/c++, Java and Matlab, you will find that you will get unexpected result when doing float point calculation. For example, when calculating 0.1 + 0.1, you will not get 0.3: > 0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3 false > 0.1 + 0.2 0.30000000000000004 Don't be surprised of this result, this is the end result of IEEE 754 standard, float point number cannot be accurately represented according to IEEE 754 because: No enough memory is allocated for representing the num...
