Hello,

first of all - great job on this very useful and important program! I've been trying it out recently and am very impressed by the progress you're making. Keep up the good work!

I have a question about an interesting issue happening after an assignment to a variable. As you can see in the screen shot below, I've assigned the variable CGE and value, and was surprised to see it get a completely different value after this:



I'm using the latest version 0.87 on win xp pro sp3.

I've tried moving the assignment around, or changing the numbers, but the problem is still there. Assigning something in between to the same variable overrides this and set a correct value:



Could it be that the particular assignment used is somehow corrupted?

Regards,
andrei

Hello Andrei,

Can not reproduce this. Could you please upload the particular file as well, or try to delete CGI variable and repeat the assignment of it.

Regards,
Radovan

EDIT: I'v made it once, but do not know how yet. The same result like yours. It was something with 5.*10^-7. But can not get it again ????

I've found it:
First input this (use decimal point-here is comma as decimal separator)
CGE←5,10^{-7}
CGE=1,1143*10^{-5}
Then insert multiplication (*) between . and 10
CGE←5,*10^{-7}
CGE=1,28*10^{-12}
Then delete decimal point
CGE←5*10^{-7}
CGE=1,28*10^{-12}

Hello Radovan,

Thank you for the quick reply.

Deleting the original assignment and making a new one solves the problem.

Here's the file on SpeedShare:

You are welcome Andrei,

I think something was happening here (a bug maybe). Anyway, the quick remedy in these cases is to delete the expression and try it again.

Regards,
Radovan

Hello, Andrei.

Radovan is right, it is because of invisible brackets appeared in the expression after some steps you've performed with it.


I have couple of reports like this, so I'll fix this soon. Thanks.

Regards.
