Hello. Juan Manuel Guerrero wrote: [snip] > long double a=1.0e309; [snip] Here's what C99 says about suffixes and long double values in section 6.4.4.2, part 4 (page 58 of the PDF): "An unsuffixed floating constant has type double. If suffixed by the letter f or F,it has type float. If suffixed by the letter l or L, it has type long double." So your code should probably be like this: long double a=1.0e309L; Bye, Rich =] -- Richard Dawe [ http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/ ]
