I have a a Java Object that implements the Scriptable interface and
returns the value -0.58*100 from the get method. The result I expect
is -58 of course but actually the result I get is -57.99999999999999.
Here is the code of the Java object that implements Scriptable
interface:
class DummyScript extends BaseScriptable {
public Object get(String s, Scriptable scriptable) {
Double result;
double src = -0.58;
result = new Double(src*100);
return result;
}
}
Does anyone know why this happens? I know rounding problems are to be
expected with large numbers of digits in any computer program but in
this very simple case its unacceptable. I can provide the full Test
Source which is very small as I have created a cut down test case for
this.
