Ive come accross some issues with floats and casting etc. Make sure you add
a float part as said before ie not 10 but 10.0. Also if you cast anything to
floats in a equation make sure you bracket everthing up to the point of
being over the top. I cant exactly remember the problem but i think it was
somthing like this:
int a = 20;
float b = 30.0;
float c;
c = (float)a * b; but the calculation was done in integer, and
then cast to a float
I solved it by
c = ((float)a) * b;
this may of not been the exact senario, but it was something like this with
the casting. Compiler Bug ???
