ensure dow jones is always used with 2 decimal places #3

Closed aimeerivers closed 15 years ago

aimeerivers commented 15 years ago

on thursday 1st october 2009 the value of the dow jones was 9711.60. active geohasher accidentally rounded it to 9711.6 for calculations, which gave completely erroneous results!

in order to make sure this doesn't happen again, make it always round to 2 decimal places.

Fixed by storing the dow jones value as a string.
