Hello,
I've tried this program under cygwin:
#include <math.h>
int main()
{
printf("%lf\n", pow(2,8));
return 0;
}
This program returns 8 instead of 256.
I've tried pow(2.0,8), pow(2.0, 8.0), etc ... Seems to me that I've found
a bug ?
instead of pow, I'm using pow(A,B)=exp(B*log(A)) (it works)
Your sincerely,
Yann COLLETTE
PS: What about a bugzilla page ?
