- bcadd
- Add two arbitrary precision numbers
-
-
- Description

- stringbcadd
- stringleft_operand
- stringright_operand
- intscale
-
-
- Adds the left_operand to the
- right_operand and returns the sum in a
- string. The optional scale parameter is
- used to set the number of digits after the decimal place in the

-
-
- Compares the left_operand to the

- used to set the number of digits after the decimal place which
- will be used in the comparison. The return value is 0 if the two
- operands are equal. If the left_operand
- is larger than the right_operand the
- return value is +1 and if the left_operand
- is less than the right_operand the return
- value is -1.
