Probably, the source of a `bug' is a language agreement that the input is in decimal representation (`0.9') and its meaning is a floating approximation in _binary_ representation.
What are you talking about? Input in decimal representation is stored as a Rational number. There is absolutely no loss of precision.

If it puts that `0.9' in the user program means precizely 9%10, then Lennart is right. As I never used such things like `0.9', I would take, so far, what the language experts say. ----------------- Serge Mechveliani mechvel@botik.ru
