For some reason I am exploring the world of the FORMAT bif and came across this surprising result
Signal on Syntax back=l1; Say format(34e4,7)--> 340000 l1: back=l2; Say format(34e5,7)-->3400000 l2: back=l3; Say format(34e6,7)-->Syntax raised in line 4 rc=93 Incorrect call to method l3: back=l4; Say format(34e7,7)-->Syntax raised in line 5 rc=93 Incorrect call to method l4: back=l5; Say format(34e8,7)--> 3.4E+9 l5: Say format(34e9,7)--> 3.4E+10 Exit syntax: Say 'Syntax raised in line' sigl Say 'rc='rc Say errortext(rc) Signal On Syntax Signal value(back) I would have xpected 3.4E+7 and 3.4E+8, respectively Regards Walter
