Yeah, look - we're arguing already. :) But, I remember, to be consistent, shouldn't the second datatype be converted to the first before the operation takes place ? So, 100 - 50% == 50 ; as first stated
I suppose 50% - 100 == -50% ; ? or should be illegal? And 50% * 100 == 5000% 100 * 50% == 50 > > And with it you could do something like: > > > > >> 100 - 50% > > == 50 > > >> 100 + 50% > > == 150 > > >> 100 * 50% > > == 5000 > > Shouldn't that be > > >> 100 - 50% > == 50% > >> 100 + 50% > == 150% > >> 100 * 50% > == 5000% > > and thus > > >> rate: 8.25% > == 8.25% > >> price: $100.00 > == $100.00 > >> tax: price * rate > == $8.25 > > >> taxrate: to-percent [$8.25 / $100] > == 8.25% > > ?? ./Jason Uh oh, so to-percent involves an implicit multiplication by 100, then?
