decimal delima

input = .2


var check = (input/2) * .001;

check = .1


this doesn't give me the proper answer cause if I have input = to .2 then the answer I get is .1 when it should be .0001
any help?

var input = .2;
var check = (input/2) * .001;
document.write(check);
works dandy on my machine. are you sure you aren't modifying the variable anywhere else in the script?

I don't know if it matters, but try changing .2 to 0.2 and likewise .001 to 0.001

var input = 0.2;
var check = (input/2) * 0.001;
document.write(check);
still get .0001
