COBOL and RPG, for example, on Mainframe / Midrange systems have native support for fixed point (decimal) types. It's the second most used type, besides the "character" types. Floats are seldom used in the context of business applications. Fixed point math is even directly implemented in hardware on Power processors. Always been like that on IBM platforms. |
