We have the same floating point intensive C++ program that runs on
Windows on Intel chip and on Sun Solaris on SPARC chips. The program
reads the exactly the same input files on the two platforms. However,
they generate slightly different results for floating point numbers.
Are they really supposed to generate exactly the same results? I
guess so because both platforms are supposed to be IEEE floating point
standard (754?) compliant. ...

We are using Visual Studio 2003.NET (C++) for the development
of our software in the fields digital signal processing and
numerical acoustics.
One of our programs was working correctly if we are using the
Debug-Version of the program, but it fails (or leads to false
results) if we are using the Release-Version. After a long
debugging session we found out, that our program was working
correctly, but the floating point processing...

no this is no trollposting and please don't get it wrong but iam very
curious why people still use C instead of other languages especially C++.
i heard people say C++ is slower than C but i can't believe that. in pieces
of the application where speed really matters you can still use "normal"
functions or even static methods which is basically the same.
in C there arent the simplest things present like constants, each struct and
enum...

C supports single precision floating point and double precision
floating point but does it support fixed floating point? i've read
that fixed floating point is more accurate than single precision
floating point when dealing with dollars and cents.

I'm working in an ARM (ARM9) system which does not have Floating point
co-processor or Floating point libraries. But it does support long long int
(64 bits).
Can you provide some link that would discuss about ways to emulate floating
point calculations with just long int or long long int. For eg., if i've a
formula X=(1-b)*Y + b*Z in floating point domain, i can calculate X with
just long ints (but, some data may be lost in final division;...

Hi,
I have a question about floating point precision in C.
What is the minimum distinguishable difference between 2 floating point
numbers? Does this differ for various computers?
Is this the EPSILON? I know in float.h a FLT_EPSILON is defined to be
10^-5. Does this mean that the computer cannot distinguish between 2
numbers that differ by less than this epsilon?

I have run an experiment to try to learn some things about floating point
performance in managed C++. I am using Visual Studio
2003. I was hoping to get a feel for whether or not it would make sense to
punch out from managed code to native code (I was using
IJW) in order to do some amount of floating point work and, if so, what that
certain amount of floating point work was
approximately.
To attempt to do this I made a program that...

Hi people
I continue to work in the tutorial for lcc-win32, and started to try to
explain the floating point flags.
Here is the relevant part of the tutorial. Since it is a difficult part,
I would like your expert advise before I publish any serious nonsense.
Any comments are welcome, style, organization, hard errors, etc.

Hi all!
The following piece of code has (for me) completely unexpected behaviour.
(I compile it with gcc-Version 4.0.3)
Something goes wrong with the integer to float conversion.
Maybe somebody out there understands what happens.
Essentially, when I subtract the (double) function value GRID_POINT(2) from
a variable which has been assigned the same value before this gives a
non-zero result and I really do not understand why.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.

I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
