Well, the rule "For money, always decimal" isn't applied inside the Microsoft development team, because if it was:
Namespace: Microsoft.VisualBasic
Assembly: Microsoft.VisualBasic (in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll)
Financial.IPmt
and all the other methods would receive/return decimal
and not double
as it is.
Now I wonder if I can use this methods without worry with round mistakes?
Should I use some other libraries to work with finances? If yes, could you point me some good ones (for C# use) ?
Thank you.
