Hello,

I've made a small test:

if (0.1+0.2) = 0.3 then

The only compiler/interpator that actually tells that it equal is FPC.

I've tested it using Javascript (in Firefox), Ruby, Python, C (gcc) and
Perl.

Except FPC, everyone tells that 0.1+0.2 = 0.30000000000000004

Can someone explain how FPC see the result and why others does not see it
like that ?


Thanks,
Ido
