But this wouldn't be portable. I mean: double x, y; ... y = pow(x, 6.0); ... in some standard C program. Could/does gcc 4.0 generate special code, taking into account the fact that 6.0 is a small integer? -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA
