 * 1) Using a calculator goes against the spirit of the problem, but can increase speed.
 * 2) Borrowing is not necessary on these problems in the decimal part (but may be in the whole number part).
 * 3) Subtracting using a distance model can increase speed over the standard algorithms.
 * 4) These problems specifically have both decimal numbers using the tenths spot, but nothing smaller.
