Note that there don't seem to be any tests, for example, against something like:
$P1 = new .Float $P1 = 1.2 $N1 = cosh $P1 op/trans.t tests some of these math ops, but only against N registers. There are tests for the complex PMC, but not Float. Add tests for all math opcodes for Float & Integer. > [coke - Tue Apr 11 07:05:31 2006]: > > There are many math ops that work on Float PMCs but not Integer PMCs. > > e.g.: > % cat foo.pir > .sub main > > P1 = new .Float > P1 = 123 > P1 = exp P1 > print P1 > print "\n" > .end > % ./parrot foo.pir > Method 'exp' not found > current instr.: 'main' pc 12 (foo.pir:6) > > The assignment of 123 autoconverts the float to an integer, which > doesn't support the 'exp' method that's defined in the Float pmc. > (Change the 123 to 123. and it works fine.) > > Given the morphing that typically happens, I'd expect to be able to > do numeric (as opposed to integer) ops on integer pmcs and have it > autoconvert to float. > > exp is one of *many* math ops this needs to be done.
