setScale returns a new BigDecimal with a given scale, it does not
change the original value.
e.g.)
user= (def mybd (BigDecimal. 40))
#'user/mybd
user= (.setScale mybd 4)
40.M
user= mybd
40M

I did not claim otherwise. The effect of with-precision is like an implicit
(.setScale foo) around every BigDecimal foo, only
I see- Sounds like we're on the same page. :)

Hi, apologies if this is a silly question. Im having some confusion
with the following code:
(with-precision 3 (/ 36.02M 4.00M))
9.01M
This is what i would expect. This however:
(with-precision 3 (/ (reduce + [15.00M 15.01M 3.00M 3.01M])
4.0M))
9M
Seems a bit odd? Or am I missing something
Agh that makes sense, I thought I was going crazy but I guess it's
obvious now you point it out... Thanks for the help :D

Hi, without knowing much about what's going on, note that

What you want is to set the 'scale' of the BigDecimal.
There doesn't seem to be a nice clojure macro for it, but this works:
user= (.setScale (reduce + [15.00M 15.01M 3.00M 3.01M]) 3)
36.020M
