Follow-up Comment #1, bug #58908 (project octave): I think this is just the limitation given by the accuracy that is provided by the double format. AFAIK, this 64 bit long number representation has 55 digits mantissa. Taking into account that 10 binary digits represent numbers up to approximately 3 decimal digits, then the numbers in your second example are near to the available precision. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?58908> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
