i.e. not exactly. > Converting 1.1 from string to double should not be a problem. That's not what your program does. It converts (long double)1.1, which is not equal to 1.1, to a string. The fact you don't understand doesn't mean the compiler has a bug, and this is off topic for this mailing list. You've been asked before to use gcc-help for this sort of email, instead of reporting "bugs" that are actually just your incorrect assumptions.
