There are several tools: Aconcagua, Money, Units; and at least two classes to overcome the imprecision of Floats: ScaledDecimal, FixedDecimal...
I found one thread where Hernan said they use Aconcagua [1], another from Squeak implying that ScaledDecimal is broken [2]. A third seemed to say that FixedDecimal would be better [3], which I hadn't heard in the handful of times money has been discussed on list (usually ScaledDecimal comes up). For a simple case where someone wanted to write a small personal accounting app, which tool and which type would be the best place to start? Thanks!
