Yes, I took a closer look at floating point addition using my compiler. This does indeed work. I was worried that once the number got put into a floating point notation, the error would still creep up, but I didn't get that, even when adding millions of numbers. Still, this is a little awkward (but workable).. I may have to make a special "MONEY" type for users, and every time convert it to cents.. Hmm..
