Hi,
Having attend Stu Halloway's talk on Clojure, at NFJS, I decided to
download it and check it out. The language seems like a perfect fit
for some database set manipulation that I do, and may need to do in
the future.
So, I downloaded clojure and started it up with the command:
java -cp clojur
I thought it neat that clojure supports fractions (just like
Smalltalk).
user=> (/ 3)
1/3
I was sort of surprised by this.
user=> (+ (float (* (/ 2) (/ 3))) (float (* (/ 2) (/ 3))) )
0.3334
(= (+ (float (* (/ 2) (/ 3))) (float (* (/ 2) (/ 3))) ) (/ 3) )
yields true
How is tracking these
er.
I was also playing with "with-precision" and "rounding".
