with the following code for assignment 1.7 I get the following: sum = 99.9999999999986 Just tell me to go to another forum or whatever (incidentally: should these questions come here or to Java Beginners? I'm all over the place :confused but...0.1 * 1000 = 100. I suppose the if statement is to show that in this case it isn't so...? here is the code:
CODE DELETED

Richard, I deleted the code you posted because I don't want you giving away the answers to future cattle drive participants. The code in assignment 1.7 is pretty easy. The hard part is the part you are struggling with now. Why did it not add up? This particular question is one that we need to cover by e-mail instead of here, so I'm going to lock this thread. Send me e-mail at paulwheaton@yahoo.com
