--- Comment #3 from Javen O'Neal <one...@apache.org> --- (In reply to jmclej from comment #2) > (...844174 cannot give ...8447) Sure it can. You're thinking of base 10 rounding, while the computer does base 2 rounding. The binary representation of ...844174 and ...8447 might be adjacent, depending on how the floats are stored, what arithmetic is used to calculate the values, the rounding errors that are accumulated along the way, etc. Even simple 3*(1.0/3) could give an answer like 1.000000000007 or 0.9999999999994, which doesn't round to the correct answer -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@poi.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@poi.apache.org
