very strange operation result

You can try this in javascript:

A) alert( 1.9 * 50 ); = 95
B) alert( 2.9 * 50 ); = 145
C) alert( 3.9 * 50 ); = 195
D) alert( 4.9 * 50 ); = 245.00000000000 003
E) alert( 5.9 * 50 ); = 295

Why D) = 245.00000000000 003 ?

Thanks,
Maori.

What is it about comp.lang.javas cript that makes people behave as if
they were in 2nd grade?
You must be first grade, we are only second grade.

Or are you referring to some local school system, unknown to many of "us"?
We

should add a "Why do people act childishly in clj?" to the FAQ.
Perhaps you can give us some first grade advice about Javascript?

Hello, I have seen something really strange in VB6 If I do a Int ( (5 * 1.2)) , I receive the value 5, but I should receive 6? Is this a bug or something really "normal". I can see that if I do ? int ((5 * 1.2 + 0.0000000000000003)) I receive 6. If I add something smaller, I have 5 as a result What is strange is that If I do a ? 5*1.2, I receive 6 so (5 * 1.2)

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.

I have a loop which iterates over an array in a particular order: for (j = 0; j < 16; j++) T = ...; The loop proceeds normally for j = 0 through j = 4, but gives an IndexOutOfRangeException at j = 5. Playing with the watch window seems to indicate that the modulo is being completely ignored: j = 0x5 (int) T = error: index '4-j%4' out of bound for pointer/array 'T'
