For most situations, the currency amounts are enough that the C double type, with 16 decimal digits of precision, can handle the simple processing without error. (C also has a 128-bit long double type but ordinary processors have no hardware for this type. On GNU/Linux the long double is usually defined as 80-bits.) But for large currency amounts and more complex processing, 16 decimal digits may not be enough. That's why decimal floating point is recommended or even required by law. What is needed is HARDWARE decimal FP. IBM has always had decimal FP hardware in its mainframes and it also has decimal FP hardware in its Power PC processors. (Only large institutions could afford such hardware.) Intel/AMD will likely never have DFP hardware. They will keep on adding special AI hardware but never DFP hardware.

That's why I said I've done few programs that use floating point, not none. I've worked on mortgage amortization routines. But most of my stuff consists of adding up columns of numbers and doing the occasional division with rounding. YMMV. IMHO one of the biggest programming mistakes is using floating point when you can do it faster, more accurately, and more easily with integers. That's not to say that there aren't places where floating point is necessary - but for some of us, that's a small portion of what we have to do. I don't need floating point to express IP addresses, for instance. -- /~\ Charlie Gibbs | In this world there are \ / <cgibbs@kltpzyxm.invalid> | two kinds of people: X I'm really at ac.dekanfrus | 1.

Some languages offer direct support for “fixed-point” formats, basically integers with a fixed scale factor, so you can do calculations that keep a fractional part. From what I gather, they tend to be difficult to use properly. The problem seems to be keeping calculations within the permissible dynamic range, to avoid overflow and underflow. This is why floating-point tends to be far more popular.

"Fuzzy Logic" typically uses floats for everything ... which was a big drain on smaller boards and such. 16 or even 32 bit integers can fill in very nicely for any sane application. DID do an application which employed some 'fuzzy' on an Arduino ... floats ... NO NO NO !!!

Audio encoding is typically 16 bit integer, but if you are doing serious processing there will be many adds subtracts and multiplies. Its way easier to do all that in FP and then round up to the nearest integer for the final output, than to constantly have to rescae to maintain acceptable precision -- Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.

Yes, C++ is overly complicated. Java left out that feature of C++, and it, too, still manages to be excessively complicated. Python, on the other hand, includes operator overloading, yet is still only a small fraction of the complexity of either Java or C++. Such a feature is useful, for example, in letting you express operations on mathematical objects (like vectors and matrices) using something close to the original mathematical notation.

It's so awful it made its creator declare: "There are only two kinds of
languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses."
If LISP has been able to include oriented object programming nicely,
adding oriented object programming in C without breaking compatibility
didn't worked that well.

From what I saw, for a beginner's approach, python is easier than Java
or C++. Now when one starts to use python in the real life, the
complexity of python appears. Because that's the python way: things
works except when they stop to work.
Like, it's not a typed language but start playing with dictionaries
without declaring your variables first to see how the claims stand
before the facts.
Or you want to see what's in some variables, so you print it with
print(myvariable)
When you start to have too many variables, you want to put the name of
the variable in front of it to increase its visibility, so you
print("myvariable: " + myvariable)
but that doesn't work because myvariable is not a string. So you have to
print("myvariable: " + str(myvariable))
But now you have the description of myvariable (or something like that:
I discovered it a long time ago, my memory isn't clear about it), not
its content, so you have to handle it differently (about that, I'm sure).
And I'm not speaking about the dependencies. Each version breaks
everything so well that now some distros don't let you install libraries
with pip if you are not in a virtual environment.
So, yes to do something simple, python is fast and easy. But if you want
to power of C++ and Java, you can't use python on a simple way.

Python is absolutely a typed language. Every object has a type and it
won’t let you use objects in a manner incompatible with their type:
>>> 0+""
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<python-input-0>", line 1, in <module>
0+""
~^~~
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'int' and 'str'
Historically it was not a statically typed language, i.e. type errors
only arose at runtime.
Today even that is not really true, in the sense that if you want it to
be statically typed then you can have that:
$ cat -n junk/t.py
1 #!/usr/bin/python3
2 def f(a: int, b: int) -> int:
3 return a+b
4 print(f(0, 0))
5 print(f(0, ""))
$ mypy junk/t.py
junk/t.py:5: error: Argument 2 to "f" has incompatible type "str"; expected "int" [arg-type]
Found 1 error in 1 file (checked 1 source file)

It sounds like you just haven’t learned Python.

We make extensive use of Python, apart from some performance issues
(exacerbated by the not particularly speedy SoC it runs on) it’s not
really problematic.

Much of my use was with Esri after they went to Python from VBA. The downside was Esri clung to 2.7 until their 11.0 release. Installing ArcDesktop also installed Python 2.7 with their modules. https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-python-libraries/ libraries/arcpy

You know, when you’re not sure how to go about something, and are just experimenting. A good environment for experimenting with Python is Jupyter <https://jupyter.org/>. This gives you a notebook-type interface which is convenient for “scratchpad” programming.

My first impulse was to use C but I'm trying to improve my general Python skills. The JavaScript part came later when I used the leaflet.js library to create a map to display the GeoJSON. Unfortunately leaflet traditionally used tiles from the OSM server. In the last month or so they've started enforcing an obscure header in the request so the tiles you get are basically '403 FOAD'
