The OP says: "For those interesting in financial apps, ...". I don't think financial apps prefer using inexact floating point numbers like float64. They tend to rather use _exact_ values like 1234.56. Note that many such values cannot be constructed _exactly_ from a float64 at all. Probably forces the user to workaround using strings. Much more effective would be x := fixed.New(123456).Div(scale), where var scale = fixed.New(100) performed probably in init(). Or even NewScaled(int64, int64). Or even New just should have two int64 parameters. Provided we really talk about financial computing. > If you review the gotrader you’ll see that it uses a dot import on this.

And that's exactly why dot imports should not ne used. -- -j -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
