When not, the value does not really matter because every value of an integer variable represents an integer number and there is no combination of the bits left unused for NaN, Inf, etc. FTR, the value is what the CPU produces. The CPU sets flags on the conversion but those are not available directly to the program. The comma-ok idiom could be useful in such cases, though.
Non-representable floating point values have to be checked before the conversion where appropriate. -- -j -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
