That expression is, not to put too fine a point on it, mad.
The operator precedence itself is giving me a headache, let
alone the division of a double by a boolean... I'm pretty sure
it doesn't do what you want it to, unless what you want is
seriously weird.
As a matter of fact, i'm pretty sure that expression evaluates
to 1, irrelevant of the values of the two variables.
s/irrelevant/irrespective/
The original expression was a candidate in a genetic programming
population - a result of trial and error / "natural" selection
over a few generations. The dustmite-reduced expression is really
weird I agree - I don't know what to make of it. I've reported it
as I found it.
The otiginal expression is not so wierd, it just haphazardly
long. It doesn't do any strange divides or compares.
In either case, it shouldn't compile normally without the '-O'
and fail to compile with it.
We managed a 1000x speed up over Java on our genetic programming
system by using D, but this compile failure is preventing us from
using the release / optimised builds :((
Thanks,
