Maybe one day it will become a part of Android by default though, which would be nice :) Not much chance of getting rich from this app, it’s free software; the source code is available on GitHub.

You must continue developing this one coz this will make you rich ! you don’t realize how useful this app can be ! especially for the hard hearing !

]]> Comment on Float.parseFloat is slow by Gaz Davidson http://bitplane.net/2010/08/java-float-fast-parser/comment-page-1/#comment-405 Gaz Davidson Wed, 23 Feb 2011 18:48:04 +0000 http://bitplane.net/?p=710#comment-405 Ah yes, a very good point. I'm guessing that the issue here is that the precision is somewhat inverse to the number of digits beyond the decimal point. I'm working away from home and haven't got a machine to test this on at the moment, but I imagine the most sensible solution would be to cap this length so that the precision is always a known number, it should speed it up a bit too. You could combine this with using doubles to store the temporary values, but if you're going to take this performance hit then it may even be worth using the latest code from Harmony; they have fixed the main problem since I reported it, plus they have proper unit tests.

your code seems to be somewhat broken. Pls, try to parse “0.0093334345″. It gives a float-value of 0.0661915

… any suggestions?
