This package implements fixed point numbers using integers. Feature complete as an intial version.
Basically
FixPoint(z::Integer,w::Integer) will create a fixed point number with the decimal point place w places from the right
FixedPoint(z::AbstractFloat, w::Integer) will create fixed point number rounded to w digits with w places
FixedPoint(v::AbstractString) will try to create a FixedPoint Number from a string using the placing of the decimal point for precision
parse(::FixedPoint, s::String) will attempt to parse a string finding the decimal point and creating a fixed point number
with the number of digits past the decimal point as the number of places
There is a BigFixedPoint with a similar interface
Strings can be used in equations where float constants might create inaccuracies due to the nature of floats.
Basic math operations and some higher math functionality availiable. Every equation will widen a fixed point number to the largest precision of any fixed point number in the equation. For example, multiplying a number of two decimal places by one of four places will produce a four place number regardless of the result. A conversion to float and back to fixed point is done when calling higher math functions. With single parameter math functions (ie. sin, cos and tan) the number of decimal places is preserved.
No breaking changes from previous versions
