I've designed a method in the class called Blopp.
class Blopp { void foo (int a = 3, double b = 3.6) {} } ;
The problem is only that when i call the method, the
value of b seems to be truncated, if one believes the
(un?) helpful IDE that pops out an info-note. On it,
the value has been clearly lowered to 3.0!
I went debugger on it and it seems that the actual
value indeed is 3.6, as supposed to. However, when
the helping info-notes give one strange suggestions,
it often implies that _something_ is wrong.
What could be a reason for this kind of behavior,
regarding the pure "C++ code"-wise. Should or need
i to use an "d" after the value to explicitly indicate
the double-ness of it? I didn't expect it to be so,
but then again, i didn't expect the truncation either...

sorry to break the peace and quiet, but Blopp::foo(...) is private.
So please explain how and where you are calling that member function
(ie: show something that compiles).

That double won't get truncated, it might however get converted into
an integer depending on what you do with it. Again, show code that
compiles, otherwise we can spend the next 2 decades disscussing all
the possibilities.

The type of 3.6 is double.

Below is a program which converts a double to an integer in two
different ways, giving me two different values for the int. The basic
expression is 1.0 / (1.0 * 365.0) which should be 365, but one variable
becomes 364 and the other one becomes 365.
Does anyone have any insight to what the problem is?
Thanks in advance.

Recently in our code, I ran into a situation where were stuffing a
float inside a double. The precision was extended automatically
because of that. To make a long story short, this caused problems
elsewhere in another part of the system where that figure was used for
some calculation and some eventual truncation led to the system going
haywire. So my question is, given this code:
int main()
{
float f = 59.89F;

This is the solution to the issue in the subject, question itself was
posted in a previous thread long back.
Use the latest DB2 db2cc.jar fixpack on the client, or add
"deferPrepares=false" to the connection string when opening the
connection (or connection pool properties, if deployed on a server like
weblogic). The issue can be resolved using either of these options.

I have a not-so-large double in the range 1-1000, but with fractional
part. I only do ++my_double to increment it, however sometimes it
happens that after incrementing
int(old_double) == int(new_double)
why? Again the doubles are not large at all, their exponents cannot be
so high to shift out the 1 I add out when incrementing and we have 64
bits to use here.

Does any body know, how to round a double value with a specific number

A function like this:

It then updates the value with numberOfPrecisions after the decimal

I know that Single and Double can only store values that can be stored as
x/2^y, such as 0.5 and 0.125. But when they attempt to store values such as
0.1 or 0.2 whose exact value cannot be stored, what algorithm do they use to
determine what value to store? Thanks.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
