Cygwin and SuSe Linux 7.2 on Intel
>Description:
In both of these environments the following code should print the same value all three times. However the third value is incorrectly printed as 256.
#include <math.h>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
double maxLinearValue = 65535.0;
double ian = maxLinearValue * pow(double(1.0/ 255.0), 1.0);
long correctLongValue = long(ian);
long incorrectLongValue = long(maxLinearValue * pow(1.0/ 255.0, 1.0));
std::cout << "double: " << ian << std::endl;
std::cout << "correct: " << correctLongValue << std::endl;
std::cout << "incorrect: " << incorrectLongValue << std::endl;
return 0;
}
