Zero = Dot (period)

Post by JRL » Sat Sep 10, 2005 5:00 am

Hi,

Was just writing a script and discovered that a "." is equal to a "0". Is it supposed to be that way? Seems to me that they should not be equal.

Using version 7.4

This simple script shows what I'm refering to:

Let>a=0
Let>b=.
If>a=b,good,bad
Goto>end
Label>good
MDL>Apparently %a% = %b%
Goto>end
Label>bad
MDL>Obviously %a% %b%
Label>end

Thanks for listening,
Dick

Numerically that is correct.
