I have same question too. I'm going to do a project with floating point
numbers and some calculation on them.

I found it is not mentioned in many popular books, such as Palm OS
Programming Bible, Palm OS Programming Developer Guide and Palm OS
Programming for Dummies. I can just find there is a chapter about routines
to change between floating pointing  numbers and strings in "Advanced Palm
Programming".

Does it mean that Palm is not suitable to projects with floating numbers?
