(UniVerse) Ive found a bug that has been in production for many years, but has just started to cause problems....but I dont know exactly why... DEC.OFFSET = 10000 FOR I = 1 TO 20 FOR J = 1 TO 99 K = I "R0%2" : '.' : J "R0%2" PRX = K IF INT(PRX*DEC.OFFSET)=DEC.OFFSET*PRX THEN PRINT K : ' PASSED' END ELSE PRINT K : ' FAILED' END NEXT J NEXT I Ive fixed it by saying ..... IF (PRX*DEC.OFFSET)+0 = DEC.OFFSET*PRX THEN But I still cant dont know why it was failing....or why this hasnt been a problem in 10 years with over 50,000 transactions a day.
