Is it possible the value you're seeing in the debugger is from a prior loop iteration? I would try stepping through 1 or 2 more lines and rechecking the value of ANS. It's been my experience that the current line of source code reported by the debugger and the current line of object code being executed can sometimes be slightly off.
You might also try ANS = SDIV(TOP.VALUE, BOTTOM.VALUE, 9) to see if you get a different result. -John -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Shawn Hayes Sent: Friday, June 18, 2010 1:26 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Division Issues Hello, I ran into an issue when dividing 2 numbers. I debugged through the first program and here is the result... TEST1: 27: IF LOAD.VALUE THEN :: S TEST1: 28: ANS = TOP.VALUE/BOTTOM.VALUE ::S ::TOP.VALUE/ NUMBER: 0.399999999 :: BOTTOM.VALUE/ NUMBER: 0.006554707 :: ANS/ NUMBER: 61.02484472 I created a little test program to divide the same 2 numbers and I came up with this... TEST.DIV: 3: NUM1 = 0.399999999 :: S TEST.DIV: 4: NUM2 = 0.006554707 :: S TEST.DIV: 5: PRINT NUM1/NUM2 :: S 61.024848098 As you can see 61.024848098 does not equal 61.02484472? I have messed around with the PRESICION statement and I still have not gotten this to work? Can someone advise? Thanks!!!
