Plínio's answer is correct, but just to demonstrate this is not just Clojure doing something stupid, here's Python doing the same thing: Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Oct 1 2012, 22:04:36) [GCC 4.4.3] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> 148.52 * 0.0256 3.8021120000000006 and here's how you should be able to get exact values in Clojure: user=> (* 148.52M 0.0256M) 3.802112M > If you don't believe me try it on: http://tryclj.com/ > > thx > > Bost -- Michael Wood <esiot...@gmail.com> -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
