Subj : Homemade float adder? To : comp.programming From : dave Date : Tue Sep 13 2005 08:48 pm This is my problem, I have 2 strings that represent floats. I want to add them together. Should I look at using Cint to convert each character in the string and add? Or is there I better way? I can't convert them to floats because the precision must be kept to 300 digits after the decimal. Any clues would be most helpful? thanks dave .
