I'm trying to compare a calculated currency total to a total in the database
stored as a float. I'm having trouble with values that seem equal but in fact
are not equal due to approximation. I thought I could do something like if
(Math.abs(value1-value2)>0.01D) //the numbers are not equal but that doesn't
seem to work either. How do you successfully compare currency values for
equality?
