I'm writing a talk for codemesh on the use of D in finance.
Any other thoughts?
For finance stuff - missing a floating point decimal data type.
Things like 1.1 + 2.2 = 3.3000000000000003
I always thought that this type of arithmetic operations can be
solved with BigInt, but never tried it. Since the issue is
related to IEEE standard, a simulated (not supported by hardware
directly) data type might be required.
