New submission from Kyle Brandt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The attached program returns a false result on one of my computers with
a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz processor. Is seems the
comparison of two int does not perform correctly. I have python 2.5.2
and 2.6.27-7-generic kernel.
The lines of interest are 89-71:
print type(f_p),type(largest),f_p,largest
if f_p > largest:
print 'foo'
largest = f_p
When running this code:
# python id_11-2.py | grep 70600
<type 'int'> <type 'int'> 70600674 51267216
# python id_11-2.py | grep foo #doesn't return anything
When I run the same code on another machine the end result of the
program is 70600674, whereas my current machine the end result is
51267216.
