John Bentley: INTRO The phrase "decimal number" within a programming context is ambiguous. It could refer to the decimal datatype or the related but separate concept of a generic decimal number. "Decimal Number" sometimes serves to distinguish Base 10 numbers, eg "15", from Base 2 numbers, Eg "1111". At other times "Decimal Number" serves to differentiate a number from an integer. For the rest of this post I shall only use either...

I am storing a 0.000 a System.Decimal in a DataRow. On retrieval the value is only 0 without the three decimal places. It looks like the Get property returns System.Decimal.Zero, but why???? I can't figure out why the design is so that the DataRow "alters" the value entered. In my application a decimal column in a row of a specific table has a fix number of decimal places according to certain premises. The

Hi, I'm having some troubles with my numeric-types in my VB.NET 2005 application, together with a SQL Server 2000. - I first used Single in my application, and Decimal in my database. But a Single with value 4.475 was converted to a Decimal with value 4.4749999999999996D. So after inserting and selecting it from the database I got another value than the original!

I'm making a program that will convert decimal inputs (in this case, in inches) and output a fractional answer. At the moment, I'm only able to output the fractional answer in three parts: A whole number text box, a numerator text box, and a denominator text box. I realize that this is probably the closest I'll get to having fractions displayed in VB, so that's no big deal. I'm able to simplify most numbers with some code I've written,...
