strtod - Dynamic Memory? - Page 3

Marky C

atof is not working.

double a = atof("12.345");

a gets set to 12.000

I am working on a toshiba micro. The data map has no space allocated
to it for dynamic memory.

Does anyone have an idea? Could it be due to the lack of dynamic
memmor space?

All thoughts gratefully received

Am I the only person who can't understand why the topic is about strtod
but the message is about atof?

C99 7.20.1.1, The atof function:

The atof function converts the initial portion of the string
pointed to by nptr to double representation. Except for the
behavior on error, it is equivalent to

strtod(nptr, (char **)NULL)

Aliasing/Torek's strtod() experience

by: Adam Warner | last post by:

Hi all, Message ID <c1qo3f0tro@enews2.newsguy.com> is one of many informative articles by Chris Torek about C. The particular message discusses aliasing and concludes with this paragraph: Under these strict type-aliasing rules, casting from (e.g.) "int *" to "short *" is not only quite suspicious, it is also likely to cause puzzling behavior, at least if you expect your "short *" to access or modify your "int". Even the time-honored,...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
