OK.
GA original code for 0.05 gave :
0.0500000007
.1
5.5
50.50
and for 50.00 or 50 gave :
50.0000000
50.0
50.00
49.950

Dreamora's corrected code for 0.05 gave :
0.0500000007
0.1
0.05
0.050
which seems ok but for 50.00 or 50 gave :
50.0000000
50.0
50.00
49.950

GA latest test for 0.05 gave :
0.0500000007
0.1
0.05
0.050
which, again, seems OK but 50.00 gave :
50.0000000
50.0
50.00
49.950

I could have it wrong but 49.950 seems incorrect.
