6.251 has no perfect double representation. It's real value is:
6.21509999999999962483343551867E0
Hence when you cast to ulong after the product by 10_000, this
is the equivalent of
trunc(62150.9999999999962483343551867E0)
which gives 62150
CQFD ;-]
That explains it!
Thank you.
There's been a small typo in my answer. "6.251" i meant obviously
"6.2151".
Anyway it doesn't change anything the most accurate double
representation is well
the long number i said.
