decimal arithmetic [计] 十进制运算
- Let us look at parallels between arithmetic using binary numbers and arithmetic using decimal numbers.
我们采用与十进制运算对比的办法来介绍二进制数的运算方法。 - Real Programmers scorn floating point arithmetic. The decimal point was invented for pansy bedwetters who are unable to think big.
真正的程序员鄙视浮点运算。十进制是为蠢人而发明的。
Decimal \Dec"i*mal\, a. [F. d['e]cimal (cf. LL. decimalis), fr.
L. decimus tenth, fr. decem ten. See {Ten}, and cf. {Dime}.]
Of or pertaining to decimals; numbered or proceeding by tens;
having a tenfold increase or decrease, each unit being ten
times the unit next smaller; as, decimal notation; a decimal
coinage.
{Decimal arithmetic}, the common arithmetic, in which
numeration proceeds by tens.
{Decimal fraction}, a fraction in which the denominator is
some power of 10, as 2/10, [frac25x100], and is usually
not expressed, but is signified by a point placed at the
left hand of the numerator, as .2, .25.
{Decimal point}, a dot or full stop at the left of a decimal
fraction. The figures at the left of the point represent
units or whole numbers, as 1.05.
