General Info: Round Floating Point Numbers

When comparing floating point numbers, make sure you round to an acceptable level of rounding for the type of application you are using.

Languages Focus: Comparison Operators

A comparison operator compares two values either literals as in "Hello" and 3 or variables as in X and Counter. Most languages use the same operators for comparing both numbers and strings. Perl, for example, uses separate sets of comparison operators for numbers and strings.

C++/CLI Comparison Operators

Same as standard C++. Common comparison operators:

== equal
!= not equal
< less than
> greater than
<= less than or equal
>= greater than or equal
Syntax Example:
//Does C++/CLI evaluate the math correctly? No!
if (0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 == 0.3)
MessageBox::Show("correct");
else
MessageBox::Show("not correct");
