Re: Why does 16.33%10 return 6.329999999999998?
Two options which can be combined or used separately as you'd like:
1. Format the output to the desired precision, or
2. Cast the resulting value to a primitive that provides the desired precision.
Why it happens can be found in many articles on the 'net. Look for something like 'java floating point precision', or 'java currency accuracy'.

If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
