Hello,

Here's my problem. I have the following lines coded in my  perl  program:

$result = 10000.00 - 9991.05;
print "\n\$result =  $result";

The result that is being printed is "8.95000000000073" instead  of  "8.95".  
Can someone please tell me why perl acts this  way.  I am  beginning to doubt 
perl's basic math  capabilities.

Thanks.
