Hi Everyone!

I am having a little issue with some math and was hopeing someone
could help me out.

Here is an example of the problem I'm having, if you run this code:

<@calc expr="3000.00-2907.80">

it gives an answer of:

92.1999999999998

which is pretty close to accurate - im assuming the problem is the
same problem as when you store floating point numbers in a computer,
it is only accurate to so many decimal places.

my problem comes in when i do this to display the results as currency:

<@calc expr="3000.00-2907.80" format="num:3-*,\,,2,.,,,-,">

it gives an answer of:

92.19

which is off by one penny.

Anyone know how to make it correctly display 92.20?

Thanks!
Alan
