How To Deal With Rounding Errors

Hey, Short version of my question: I believe I am having rounding errors because I am working with really, really small values. Would it help if I multiplied these values by a scalar (say, 1,000), did math with them, and then divided them by the scalar? I remember learning how IEEE floating point n

Asynchronous timers (without a run loop)

I need to use timers in a low level library where I need to specify asynchronous callbacks to a timer function. I will not have any run loop so I cannot use NSTimer. Are there any low level timer API to use instead? I haven't found anything useful (yet) on google nor ADC. I assume there must exist
