I think, this is a lot of stuff for one single value. I tend to
convert the
FixedDecimal into a Float for storing it. In this case, it would be like
this:
"vatAmountEUR": 0.7196
When loading, I immediately re-convert it into a FixedDecimal. I
would do NO
computing with the float(!!).
What is your opinion about this (rounding issues, performance,
database size
etc.)?
Do you think, there is something against it? What would you do?
Hi Sabine,
my misinformed opinion on storing fixed decimals is to completely
avoid floats and keep it as simple as possible. Floats smell like
problems to me.
Why not store two integers: one for the integer part and one for the
digits and implement some kind of converter for storing/retrieving.
with "digits" I mean the part after the decimal point. Would decimal
part be a better term? not sure...
