Hy all, I recently tried to compare two Float which apparently should be (nearly) the same. I have to following excerpt:
a := (Float halfPi / 2) tan a = 1.0
The comparison evaluates to false, although it should be 1.0. How do I compare Floats so I get useful results?
I'm using Squeak 3.8.18beta3U VM and the Squeak3.10.2-7179-basic.image on Mac OS X 10.5 with an Intel Core 2 Duo.
Thanks, Camillo
