title: how to get a float using parseFloat(0.00)
body: <p>How can I get a float of 0.00. The reason I need 0.00, is because I am going to be accumalating float values by adding. Hence starting with 0.00.
  I tried</p>
  
  <pre><code> var tmp ='0.00'
   tmp  = parseFloat(tmp.toString()).toFixed(2);
   totals = parseFloat(tmp)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>tmp is 0.00 but totals is 0. How can I make total 0.00? I need it to stay as a float and not a string.
  Thanks</p>
