Oh, sorry. To further document...
use StupidFloat;
stupidfloat <n>;
- generates a float "variable" named <n>
If you nest a bunch of expresssions, no rounding
(truncation) will be down during it, only when data is
retrieved from the "variable", so if you have a loop that
is acculating binary noise, do:
foreach my $i (0 .. 1_000_000) {
var() = big(old_nasty_expression(that(includes(var())));
}
making sure to retreive var every time.
Hmm. Rather then putting () on the end of var, &var = 100.00
kinda looks more sane, more like $var.
[Still jobless, if you haven't guessed]
