Hi,
I test the code below :
-------------------------------------------------------------
int main() {
char *str1="-0x1.4EF009P-16";
char *str2="-0x1.744513P-55";
char *str3="+0x1.1C7509P-19";
float temp;
fesetround(FE_UPWARD);
temp = strtof(str1, NULL);
printf(" %s -> %a\n", str1, temp);
fesetround(FE_DOWNWARD);
temp = strtof(str2, NULL);
printf("%s -> %a\n", str2, temp);
temp = strtof(str3, NULL);
printf("%s -> %a\n", str3, temp);
return 0;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------
I met a problem as below:
On SUSE-SP1 x86_64 with glibc-2.11-3 and gcc-4.3.2
I got the result:
-0x1.4EF009P-16 -> -0x1.4ef00ap-16
-0x1.744513P-55 -> -0x1.744514p-55
+0x1.1C7509P-19 -> 0x1.1c750ap-19
while On Fedora x86_64 with glibc-2.17-19 and gcc-4.8.2
I got the result:
-0x1.4EF009P-16 -> -0x1.4ef008p-16
-0x1.744513P-55 -> -0x1.744512p-55
+0x1.1C7509P-19 -> 0x1.1c7508p-19
All the fesetround setted success.
Can someone tell me which is right and why?
Regards.
Wang
