Dear OpenERP experts,
I don't yet what would be wrong with the algorithm we tried to propose here. But I could see that the topic of rounding floats to the shortest decimal fraction is actually a known topic of numerical calculus. I've found some sources claiming the best algorithm would be the Dybvig's one: http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download;jsessionid=0CF999B48641E6A3CCDCCCA2D895827B?doi=10.1.1.52.2247&rep=rep1&type=pdf
Also, I've seen that Python 2.7 or 3.1 are doing such rounding to shortest decimal fraction. I don't know what they are using, but may be it's reusable somewhat.
I've also found this http://research.swtch.com/2011/07/floating-point-to-decimal-conversion-is.html and this in response: http://smalltalk.gnu.org/blog/bonzinip/floating-point-decimal-conversion-not-so-easy
Holly shit!
