Floats vs money is like `ascii` vs `utf-8`. You can get a bunch of bits, but how you handle it make a ton of differences Plus, so little languages care about us living in the business world. You can count with fingers in a single hand the languages that are meant for business app. All the others are bad languages (and libraries, frameworks, data stores), ill-suited for the job. And so, all of them need to reimplement (badly, ad-hoc, bug-ridden) version of money and friends. And weirdly, no hardware support at all, so our friends on C say: "Look, no important to handle money, bye" and nobody else does it either. |
