For now, just understand that during computations and conversions, minor rounding errors can be introduced in these numbers. That’s why it is not advisable to simply rely on the equality operators (==) to compare floating-point numbers. Let’s learn how to compare float values in Java. Tab...
Now when we know the problem with equality operator, lets solve it. Using programming, we cannot change the way these floating point numbers are stored or computed. So we have to adapt a solution where we agree that a determine the differences in both values which we can tolerate and still...

Avoid Floating-Point Arithmetic for Equality Avoid using floating-point arithmetic for integer equality checks due to precision issues. Use integer comparison or consider using theMath.absmethod for a tolerance-based approach. Document Non-Obvious Comparisons ...
I'd rather like to see the cmp package name for something like #45200, which is more about equality for testing. I don't know if Ordered/Min/Max would fit into such a package. There is some implicit conventional usage of cmp as an identifier for variables and functions in the standard...

so it makes sense that for a "strictly greater than" operation we would rule that out — but I think we can make a safe assumption that a greater-than or less-than relationship is, unlike equality, preserved in floating-point operations, if you're not going to the limit of the number...
However, we have additional reasons for such behavior in theBigDecimalclass. 3.1. Scale First of all, the representations of the numbers aren’t the same. The scale is stored in a separate field and defines the floating point’s position: ...
