Summary: NSNumberFormatter's output is influenced by the Objective-C type of the number passed as input. This behavior was unexpected, and I want to clarify whether this is intentional or a bug. NSNumber *numberInCents = @9999; NSNumberFormatter *numberFormatter = [[NSNumberFormatter alloc] init]; [numberFormatter setNumberStyle:NSNumberFormatterCurrencyStyle]; [numberFormatter setMultiplier:@0.01]; NSString *formattedString = [numberFormatter stringFromNumber:numberInCents]; NSLog(@"formattedString: %@", formattedString); // formattedString is "$99.00" since the -objCType of numberInCents is i. // changing numberInCents to @9999.0 results in formattedString equaling "$99.99" Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a sample Xcode project 2. Run the sample code from the description 3. Observe the output in the Xcode console Expected Results: The expected result is $99.99 Actual Results: The actual result is "$99.00" since the Objective-C type of numberInCents is i.
