Hi,<br />
<br />
I was playing a bit with floating point types when I noticed this discrepancy:<br />
<br />
From math.pp<br />
<br />
{$ifdef FPC_HAS_TYPE_EXTENDED}<br />
const<br />
MinExtended = 3.4e-4932;<br />
MaxExtended = 1.1e+4932;<br />
{$endif FPC_HAS_TYPE_EXTENDED}<br />
<br />
From fpc reference guide:<br />
Extended 1.9E-4932 .. 1.1E4932<br />
<br />
3.64519953188247460253E-4951 seems to be the lowest value I can get<br />
while testing (Win 32 bit).<br />
<br />
What's up with that?<br />
<br />
Bart<br />
