This is a bit complicated than i expected. is there any function that
will help me to return proper result (like 0.06) from 1/15?
Thank you

OK, a simple answer:
No.
The correctly rounded result is 0.07, so if you want the result to be
"0.06", you will need to write complicated code to round the result the
way you want to (why do you want to round down?).
There is no substitute to learning how to properly deal with f-p
arithmetic. This will not be the last time you encounter this.
For a simple answer, try the vbscript FormatNumber function.

Hi,
I'm trying to use a generics dictionary with a key class that implements and

However when I attempt to use the dictionary, it doesn't appear to use the
IComparable<> to find the key.
In the example below, accessing the dictionary by using the exact key object
that was used to add to the dictionary works.
(see code comment 1).

Hi,
I have a query.
All html tags start with < and end with >. Suppose i want to display either '<' or '>' or say some text like '<Company>' in html how do i do it?
One method is to use <, > ,<Company> to display '<', '>' and '<Company>' respectively.
But is there any freeware code available which could implement the above functionality without having to use >,< and such stuff???

Since the include function is called from within a PHP script, why
does the included file have to identify itself as a PHP again by
enclosing its code in <?php... <?>
One would assume that the PHP interpreter works like any other, that
is, it first expands all the include files, and then parses the
resulting text. Can anyone help with an explanation?
Thanks,
