Subject: strange floating point behaviour (bug?) Sender: normca@yahoo.ca 16.07.07 11:49 When I assign a floating point value to an SFRotation script variable, a small number is added to that value. for example see Twist[3] in the script below. DEF    MoveControl Script {     eventIn            SFBool        Signal     eventOut        SFRotation    Twist     url "javascript:     function Signal(bool) {         if (bool == TRUE) {             Twist[0] = 0;             Twist[1] = 1;             Twist[2] = 0             Twist[3] = 3.14;         }     }     " } However, the value of Twist[3] is not 3.14; it's 3.140000104904175. What's even stranger is that the value of Twist is 0 1 0 3.14 !! Below I show the content of VRMLPad's "Immediate" window while in debugging mode. Twist; 0 1 0 3.14 Twist[3]; 3.140000104904175 (By the way, VRMLPad is great!) Looks like a bug to me, but maybe there's something I don't understand. norm   [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums] strange floating point behaviour (bug?) / normca@yahoo.ca / 16.07.07 11:49      Re: strange floating point behaviour (bug?) / nalex@parallelgraphics.com / 17.07.07 06:34 Messages in thread: 2 [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums]
