Joseph Ercolano

Abstract

In the mathematics of finance, as well as in numerous engineering calculations, it often happens that one is required to perform the multiplication of two numbers, each of which contains a considerable number of digits to the right of the decimal point, and round off the product to a desired number of places (considerably fewer relative to the places appearing in the original numbers).
