Decimal changelog

Changelog History

• v0.5.1 Changes

  • Bankers' Rounding implemented in "roundTo". This rounds values ending in "5" to the nearest even number, in line with the behaviour of "Prelude.round". This is potentially a breaking change for software that depends on the old behavior, so the minor version number has been bumped.

  • ➕ Added a stack.yaml file.

  • 📚 Corrected documentation.

  • Read instance now handles leading spaces properly.

  • 🛠 Fixed compiler warnings in test suite.

  • ➕ Added roundTo' which allows for truncate, floor and ceiling behaviour when rounding.

• v0.4.1 Changes

  • 👌 Improved Read instance. Now handles "1.2e3" and reads only returns a single parse.

  • 📚 Corrected documentation.

  • ➕ Added Enum instance.

  • decimalConvert now returns a Maybe value. The old version has been renamed to "unsafeDecimalConvert.

• v0.3.1 Changes

  • ➕ Added Typeable, Fractional and RealFrac instances.

  • Multiplication now returns an exact result, increasing precision if necessary.

  These changes alter the API. Hence the increment to the major version number.

• v0.2.3 Changes
