Again, this is a business decision that a company needs to make, not us in IT.

Yes. IT are...

erm! did you not state that

1/3 is

(int) 1 divided by (int) 3

however:-

1.0 divided by 3.0 as (money + implied zeros) = 0.3333(0)

select cast(1.0 / 3.0 as money)

1.0 divided by...

OK for the last time

1 divided by 3 as (money + implied zeros) = 0.0000(0)

1 divided by 3 as (decimal(12,6) + implied zeros) = 0.000000(0)

0.0000(0) - 0.000000(0) = 0.000000(0) =...

David Burrows was struggling to prove his point about "implied zeros" fut (sic) he failed.

No I did not...

Quite right, well put

But it was your statement that decimal 0.3333 is not equal to 1/3 and cannot represent 1/3 for BR purposes.

Not mine 

So, what is your...

I thought we had settled this, that as you can't.

Because 1/3 = 0 as you stated before, it is an expression, that is evaluated to (int) 1 / (int) 3

to get...

X.XX50 value represents values X.XX50(0) .. X.XX50(9)

Sergiy,

Surely if TR is to produce a value X.XX50 then the...

Depends

could be

0x0000000003000000

or

0x0100000003000000

or

0x555555555555D53F

btw who's Davis ?

now you answer my question

Sergiy,

You go to your local store and purchase an item priced at 33 cents (marked as 0.33)

You give the item to the storekeeper plus 1 dollar

The storekeeper writes down on...

1 divided by 3

As an integer (yes I know as zero as you keep on stating)

or

As a decimal number with a number of decimal places to a certain accuracy within the...

1/3 - 1/3 = 0

Right?

Hope you not gonna deny this.

No and I never did. I only stated

0.33 - 0.333333 = -0.003333

and

0.33 - 0.333333 <> 0

Did you see the script?

Yes

Did you understand it?

Yes

I have never assigned 0.33 or 0.3333333 to any variable.

Yes you did, you assigned the rounded result of the division to the variables

SET...

wow you showed that .33 minus .333333 equals -.003333 and -.003333 rounded to 2 decimal places equals .00

I could have done that, but what has that got to do with...

Can you give any reference to any math rule which implies those zeros?

No.

But if 1.23 expressed to 6 decimal places is 1.230000, then, if the trailing zeros are not implied...
