[fpc-devel] function samevalue in unit math of FPC-2.2.4

2009-11-12 Thread Alain Michaud
Hi, the function math.samevalue does not seem to work for small numbers: See FPC-2.2.4 unit math lines 2177, 2155, 2195: function SameValue(const A, B: Double; Epsilon: Double): Boolean; begin if (Epsilon=0) then Epsilon:=Max(Min(Abs(A),Abs(B))*DZeroResolution,DZeroResoluti

Re: [fpc-devel] 64 Bit / 32 Bit
