Is a double really unsuitable for money?
Very, very unsuitable. Use decimal.
double x = 3.65, y = 0.05, z = 3.7;
Console.WriteLine((x + y) == z); // false
(example from Jon's page here - recommended reading ;-p)
You will get odd errors effectively caused by rounding. In addition, comparisons with exact values are extremely tricky - you usually need to apply some sort of epsilon to check for the actual value being "near" a particular one.
Here's a concrete example:
using System;
class Test
{
static void Main()
{
double x = 0.1;
double y = x + x + x;
Console.WriteLine(y == 0.3); // Prints False
}
}
