Australian Longest Straight Road in Prolog (Was: Clojure hasn't gained momentum [Martin Odersky 2025 Talk])

Show all headers | View raw

Do these units packages define rounding? Is this correct:

I think one way its correct:

145.6 km ÷ 1.609344 km/mile = 90.47 miles

The other way its incorrect:

90 miles × 1.609344 km/mile = 144.84 km
