This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Excel has a 15 point float, a quadrillionth, which should be enough for anything you were using excel for.

yeah because excel does rounding stuff automatically for you

try entering 0.1 + 0.2 - 0.1 - 0.2 == 0.0 in any programming language of your choice and see what happens.
