I don't know of any "random" results. There are inexact results
stemming from the approximations inherent in limited-precision
floating-point arithmetic. If those approximations cause problems in
your application, stay away from floating-point.
J does not conform to IEEE always; in particular 0^0 is 1. We think
that is an improvement on IEEE-754.

We had problems with random results in another thread, so I looked at
this. It seems obvious that these problems exist. If you want you can
deny it of course. /Erling

I would start by better understanding the specific problem I was
trying to solve.
(As opposed to coming up with a solution and then looking for a
problem that fits to it...)
