Why primitive types are unprecises? the unacceptable explaination...

Another excellent article by Brian Goetz on numerical java data type storing. It's just a question of IEEE 754. So, don't expect to work with primitive types in Java for finacial applications. Such a pity! My old Casio FX-7000 is more powerfull than my computer.

Financial programs represents a major part of softwares all over the world. If you want my opinion, its unacceptable to have to work with wrapped types!!!

James Goslin, any solution? You're welcome if you have one.
