Re: [Pharo-users] Rounding in Floats

"7.1 roundTo: 0.1 should return 7.1" You're still not getting it. 7.1 IS NOT 71/10. 0.1 IS NOT 1/10. Binary floating point CANNOT represent either of those numbers. You seem to be assuming that Pharo is making some mistake. It isn't. All it is doing is refusing to lie to you. #include #include

There are two quite different questions. (1) Where may dashes occur in a real ISBN-10? (2) What does Exercism require in the specification and check in the test cases? For (1) the rules are Each ISBN consists of 5 elements with each section being separated by spaces or hyphens. Three of the five

This is running 32-bit Pharo 80 on 32-bit TinyCore 11.1 (Linux kernel 5.4.3). There is a 64-bit version of TinyCore, which I plan to test next... Then test 64-bit Pharo 80 and try Pharo Launcher on top of that. Then on a Raspberry Pi... Here's what's intriguing about this: TinyCore Linux is SU

Hi Stef, I don't know what's the demand for such a feature. In the Windows and Desktop era it might have been very important, but I don't see that kind of integration these days, when most system integrations happen at the HTTP level. For my particular case I don't need a DLL. Regards! Esteban

Re: [Pharo-users] Rounding in Floats

Hi Tomohiro, Thanks, that certainly is the simplest solution that does exactly what I need. Maybe roundTo: should be considered harmful when using Floats. (and it is very unlikely anybody is going to round to something other than a power of 10) Best regards! Esteban A. Maringolo On Mon, Sep 7

Re: [Pharo-users] Rounding in Floats

Esteban, You can instead use `7.1 round: 1` to get 7.1. It's not the problem of the rounding algorithm. It's because IEEE float can't express the exact value of 0.1. --- tomo 2020年9月7日(月) 21:28 Esteban Maringolo : > > Hi Sven, > > On Mon, Sep 7, 2020 at 9:10 AM Sven Van Caekenberghe wrote: > > >
