Currency to Floating point

Hi,
The Group and Legal costs that are sent to BW from R/3 contain as 6 decimal places. As cost fields, the Group and Legal Costs are stored in BW as currencies and therefore have only 2 decimal places.
The two objects are going to need to be changed to floating point numbers.
Do i need to delete the entire data in the ODS before proceeding?
Regards,
Anita

Floating Point arithmetic conversion

Hi Everyone,
Can you tell me how to convert a floating point arithmetic field value to a currency field value.
thanks,

Hi,
I hope simple move statement should work.
MOVE l_float TO l_curr.
Make sure that curr field has enough length.
Thanks,

Floating point keyfigure display in infocube

Hi ALL,
i created floating point key figure as a number, i uploaded flat file to cube, values in flat file 4.33 but in infocube output is 4,3300000000000001E+00 coming like this, y not round up this values in infocube. please help me
Thanks,

Hi,
you have reload the data in info cube
Delete records from Cube and PSA
--> Goto Data source
-->in Fields Tab, put Data type of that fields DEC Or CURR (for Currency) (Remove FLTP data type that caue the floating points)
-->Activate the data source
-->Preview the data (will show data without Floating point)
-->Trigger infopackage
-->Trigger DTP
Check the record and let me know the result

BigDecimal vs floating points...

Hi all,
I know its probably been asked amillion times before but I need to finally fully understand and get my head around the two.
Firstly here are some bits I've been told by different people and read in different places (alot of people seem to think differently which is what confuses me):
- I've read that if you are wanting precision for currency for example that floating point shouldnt be used because of its accuracy down to the fact it cant represent every decimal number.
- The some people have told me that it doesnt matter and theres not much point ,ost the time in BigDecimal all you need to do is correct the floating point with formatting.
- I've asked about this before but people just seem to give me a short answer to it but without actually explaining why or where they get it from, you cant just assume an answer based on nothing...
I'm building some engineering software that has a general accuracy of 3 decmial places (millimeters from meters) and my first thought is that if currency at 2 decimal places requires BigDecimal then I surely require it (I cant afford to be missing off mm for every calculation, theres alot!) but the problem is this has resulted in me building pretty much the whole application with BigDecimal which you can probably imagine brings up thoughts about performance and memory uptake, I do calculations with BigDecimal, store data in BigDecimal and infact the only thing I do in double is the graphical display as the accuracy isnt so important.
My last question is if this is an ok way to build an accurate application it makes me start to wonder why is floating points used more than BigDecimals, surely most numbers are required to be accurate in applications especially of an enterprise scale?
Thanks,
Ken

So your a big user of BigDecimal as well then? Thats good to know someone else thinks in similar ways, I was starting to feel like abit of an idiot for using them so extensively lolNot at all. The idiots are the people who use primitives rather than BigDecimal "because they're faster" even though they've never actually experienced any performance problems. Of course, there are lots of cases where the speed of a primitive is preferable, but on the whole those guys know perfectly well who they are and what they're doing.
My program is very calculation heavy and I've not had any real performance issues yet but I was wondering if the performance gain would be significant enough while keeping the accuracy.Testing will show you the way. Don't let any "we tested this calculation a million times using primitives and the same one using BigDecimal, and it showed a remarkable 3 seconds quicker using primitives" sidetrack you, either. All that matters is that your actual production code is performant enough for your application. Generally speaking, anything involving currency will probably be better using BigDecimal, or, really, a Money class which happens to use BigDecimal under the covers. Quite why enterprise-targeted languages don't have some sort of native Money or Currency class out-of-the-box remains a mystery, to be honest.

SQL Loader and Floating Point Numbers

Hi
I have a problem loading floating point numbers using SQL Loader. If the number has more than 8 significant digits SQL Loader rounds the number i.e. 1100000.69 becomes 1100000.7. The CTL file looks as follows
LOAD DATA
INFILE '../data/test.csv' "str X'0A'"
BADFILE '../bad/test.bad'
APPEND
INTO TABLE test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
Amount CHAR
and the data file as follows
"100.15 "
"100100.57 "
"1100000.69 "
"-2000000.33"
"-100000.43 "
the table defined as follows
CREATE TABLE test
Amount number(15,4)
) TABLESPACE NNUT050M1;
after loading a select returns the following
100.15
100100.57
1100000.7
-2000000
-100000.4
Thanks in advance
Russell

Actually if you format the field to display as (say) 999,999,999.99, you will see the correct numbers loaded via SQL Loader.

R6002 - floating point not loaded / C++ Runtime Error

Good Evening,
I have been having this problem with Adobe Bridge for a while and tonight sat down to try and solve it. Fresh version of Windows XP reinstalled all programs and this is still happening! Any Ideas?
This error only occurs with Adobe Bridge, I can load Photoshop etc.. all fine.
Error:
"Runtime Error!
Program: C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS3\Bridge.exe
R6002
- floating point not loaded"
Here is a print screen..
http://images.unbrokenphotography.co.uk/BridgeError.jpg

Is there are answer to this problem? This error message is appearing on an entire lab full of computers. We are running Web Premium CS4
I have tried to reset the Bridge Preferences:
Hold down the Ctrl key and click on Bridge icon to start.
Should get a reset window with 3 options.
Choose the first option
I still get "Runtime Error! Program: C:\Prgram Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge CS4\Bridge.exe R6002 -floating point support not loaded"

Invalid Floating Point Error

I have one Captivate 3 project published as a Stand Alone
project with Flash 8 selected. There are 36 slides, no audio, no
eLearning, SWF size and quality are high.
One person who runs this gets an "Invalid Floating Point"
error when he tries to run it the first time. He is running Windows
XP SP2, Firefox 3.0.4. and Flash Player 10.0.12.36. Other Captivate
projects I've created run fine for him. This one sometimes runs
after the first Error message.
Any thoughts on the cause and fix?
Thanks,
Janet

iMediaTouch probably doesn't support Floating Point formats - it certainly doesn't mention them in the advertising. Try saving your files as 24-bit PCMs, and they should import fine.

Conversion of a floating point type field

Hi,
I'm fetching field ATFLV from table AUSP for a particular value of ATINN.ATFLV is a floating point type field.
Can anyone please guide me as to how to convert this field(ATFLV) from floating point no. to a simple no.?
Helpful answers will be rewarded.

hi,
Do like this,
float f = 234.33;
int i = (int) f; // i has value 234.

Maximum size of a floating-point number

Morning all,
Does anyone know what the maximum size of a floating point number can be under Solaris 8 running on
a V880?
Regards,
Richard Breckon

I'm not sure what you're asking.
The maximum size is 128 bits.
The maximum value is as given in /usr/include/float.h: 1.189731495357231765085759326628007016E+4932L

Check Floating Point Number

Hello All,
I am having some trouble checking the value of a field with Key Figure type Number with 8 byte floating point. I want to read that field and populate another field with an X if true. For example if that field is equal to 5,0000000000000000E+07 then i want to mark the other field with an 'X'.
The problem is in my code, how do i read that number in the fltp field, such as the number above. my code reads as follows for the 'X' field.
    if SOURCE_FIELDS-abc123 eq 5000000.
      RESULT = 'X'.
    endif.
Thanks everyone in advance

You don't need to worry about converting the code into standard format or floating, just implement your code as you want and it will automatically take care of the conversion. Basically 5,0000000000000000E+07 = 50,000,000.
thanks.

32 bit Floating Point

Hello,
Running FCP 5.1
Having audio sync issues and was double checking my settings.
Although the sequence presets are at 16 bit, they are showing up in the browser as 32bit Floating Point.
Any thoughts?
I generally capture now at 30 minute increments and actually have always had this issue. FCP 4.5 and 5.1
all settings are where they should be.
although I do notice, obviously when the device is off, the audio output defaults to 'default' not to firewire dv.
thanks
iMac intel Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Some more details please. What hardware device are you sourcing the audio clips from? The likely culprit is your capture settings. What preset are you using? Check Audio/Video Settings-Capture Presets and see if the preset you've selected records audio as 32 bit. It will say in the right column after you've selected your preset.
If it says 32 bit there, click Edit to get the Capture Preset Editor. Under Quicktime Audio Settings, the Format field should give you a selection of sample rates and possibly alternate bit depths. If your only choice is 32 bit, (as it is for me when I capture audio via my RME, 32 bit Integer in my case) then you'd be well served by bringing those files into Peak or Quicktime and saving them as 16 bit Integer files to match your sequence settings.
If you've imported these files into FCP from an audio editor that can create 32 bit floating point audio files, eg Kyma, Sequoia, Nuendo, etc. then the same advice applies. The 32 bit files are much larger than they need to be and may upset the apple cart (he he, pun) when pulled into a sequence with different settings. More cpu overhead for sure.
Let us know what you find.

How to make floating point division

I have tried many alternatives but i couldnt make any single floating point number printed to a page...
I am compiling the servlet with eclipse 3.2 without any error but the jsp page says java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: floatnumber even i have that variable...
i have tried double,float but both of them makes the error above...but i can print long as well.
can anyone teach me to divide 2 integer values and print the exact result like;
3 / 5 = 0.6

can anyone teach me to divide 2 integer values and
print the exact result like;
3 / 5 = 0.6
int a= 3, b= 5;
double result= ((double)a)/b;... or any valid variation thereof.
kind regards,

Reading Floating Point PLC5 Registers Kills my ability to write to any register

When ever I create an object that reads a PLC5 Floating Point Register(F8:5),it kills my ability to write to any other PLC register. The problem only shows up with Floating Point registers. If I use integer registers (N7:121 etc.)I can read/write fine. It also severely slows down my normal driver scan update time. Even though it is set to scan every 30 seconds, I may only get an update every few minutes. Anyone else ever run into this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
It might be helpful creating a log file to monitor com port activity.
Here's the Knowledgebase article about it.

Another way to check the serial port activity would be using "portmon"
software available at

I hope this helps.
