I have a problem with divide operation,
the example is:
double a =10.0;
double b =220.0;
double divAns = a/b;
the calculation true result is 0.04545454545454545
but for some resone the calculation is changing to get the result
0.0454545468091
if you know how can i get the system to calc the first calculation or if you
know of an object like BigNumber in java that can make
calculation with a specipic precision it could realy help me alot.
