PostgreSQL version: 8.1.5
Operating system: CentOS Linux 3.8 on x86_64
Description: mod on non-integer returns bad result
Details:
Hello,
select mod (70.0,70) from dual;
returns
70.0
instead of
0.0
This happens on x86_64 architecture (e.g. Intel Xeon E5310, Xeon
DP 3GHz, but not only) with PostgreSQL compiled for x86_64. If compiled for
i686, gives right results.
Bad results occurs for 70.0 and multiples.
e. g.
select mod (60.0,60) from dual;
returns 0.0
Also
select mod (70,70) from dual;
gives 0 correctly.
Thanks, Filip
