Hi, D community! I have this program:
import std.stdio; import std.conv; int main(string[] argv) { float eps = 1.0f; float f = 0.0f; while (f + eps != f) f += 1.0f; writeln("eps = " ~ to!string(eps) ~ ", max_f = " ~ to!string(f)); return 0; } According to the languge specification what result would you expect from its execution? When running similar C++ program (VS 2013) the loop terminates and I get t = 2^24 = 16777216. Does D language specifies that loop will be terminated for this program or ? I compiled with DMD and it hungs. Details about assembly generated by DMD can be found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28380651/floating-point-maxing-out-loop-doesnt-terminate-in-d-works-in-c Thanks.
