Accuracy

Question: Sometimes JavaScript computations seem to yield "inaccurate" results, e.g. 0.362*100=36.199999999999996. How can I avoid this?

Answer: To avoid "inaccurate" results, you might want to round the results to the precision of the data you used. For example, in order to round the result to one thousandth, you can use this code:

roundedX = Math.round(1000*rawX)/1000;
