Hello all, people here are having very serious problems with both g77 and f2c: the numbers which come out at the end are different from any other architecture we can lay our hands on, i.e. they have declared the boxes unfit for numerical calculations.
This is a pretty major problem because the whole idea of getting Linux on fast PCs was to offload the main Unix boxes from jobs. Now the question is: am I the only one seeing this problem or is this a known problem which somehow doesn't make it on the READMEs and FAQs? I'd like to point out that where g77 is in alpha stage, f2c isn't and on other architectures is happily used and gives numerically consistent results with the native Fortran compilers. I would greatly appreciate any information or patches. A bug report is in the process of being prepared for both the g77 developers and the f2c developers. Incidentally, should I send a bug report to the Debian developers too? Thanks, Arrigo -- Arrigo Triulzi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, http://www.ma.ic.ac.uk/~agbt Mathematics Dept.
