Subject: [9fans] libfmt/libutf and long double
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2003 22:10:41 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <C01AD478-3A75-11D8-BD48-000A95C53D8A@suspicious.org> (raw)
Hello,
I've run into a behavior with libfmt/libutf on UNIX system
that does not seem intuitive:
long double ldv = 3.3;
print("long double var = %llE\n", ldv);
gives:
long double var = -6.257775E+92
Identical code under Plan 9 gives the expected output of:
long double var = 3.300000E+00
Is there any particular reason why the behaviors should
differ in this manner ?
cheers,
