issue with java calculator logic

HI

I am having a piece of code which does a simple division operation on double values . For example

• 532/21 (25.33)
• 8,470.56/21  (403.35)

The same can be verified with the sample java calculator downloaded from java tutorials website . I would like to know why there is a change in behaviour as in case 2 it should come as 403.36 instead of 403.55

Regards

Arun

"...instead of 403.35"

Output depends on precision and scale used. The downloaded calculator could be using a different precision and scale. Refer https://dzone.com/articles/arbitrary-precision-numbers
