Line 30:
Not a programming comment ... (just adding my two-bits, er, I mean 80% of that), but I would say that halves are not very rare, just uncommon. Around these parts (upper midwest of the US), both dollar coins and halves are common.
Now, what's very rare is a twenty-¢ piece, half disme, or a 3-¢ piece . -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 20:17, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Also, the REXX versions support fractional cents.   Support was added to allow specification of a half-cent and quarter-cent as   '''1/2'''   and   '''1/4'''.
 
All fractional cents can be entered as (for instance)   '''.5'''   '''.25'''     (with or without superfluous leading zeroes).   -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 19:36, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
