Maybe I'm missing something...
What I don't get is that the addition is performed correctly despite the "D" instead of "E".
$my_x = $info[4] + 0;
$my_y = $info[5] + 30;
for($i = '1'; $i <= $info[2]; $i++) {
print ("$my_x $my_y $info[($i + 8)]\n");
$my_y = $my_y + 30;
I would expect to see for the output:
0.22512 30.341916 661
but it actually does understand D+06 as exponential notation
Can anyone explain why?
Thanks,
Kris

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
