If you have 1...3 SMSQ partitions, you can have as many Linux
partitions as you like.
Oops, yes I forgot about creating one extended partition and dividing
it into logical partitions.
4 SMSQ partitions worked for me when there were no other
(=Linux) partitions.
I had four SMSQ partitions
Morning all,
I managed to do a bit of experimenting on the INT(x) problem last night.
Counting down gave the following results:
3.03 3
3.02 3
3.01 3 The correct result for 3 this time is because the
3 3 internal value printed as 3 will be slightly higher
2.99 2
Only guessing because I can't try this until I get home, but when n
reaches the value 2. (the nearest it'll get to 3.00
because
0.01 is not represented exactly internally [that would need an
infinite
number of bits]), then PRINT n will round up to 3, whereas INT(n)
will
return the
Hmmm - the odd behaviour with negative numbers is not unique to SBASIC.
I've just tried it with QBASIC in NT and it does exactly the same.
I'd be interested to read the ISO or ANSI standard on this for the
justification. Curiously, the 68040 provides two instructions for
getting an
Thank's a lot for your work. I think it would be a good idea to store the
result somewhere for all the community. Because I still think this behavior
is not obvious and can generate unexpected results and frustrations.

Hi
Some while back I asked for help in getting QPC2 v2.00 using High colour.
Thanks for those who offered ideas.
I found, quite by accident, that if I disabled Norton Crash Guard the
problem was solved.
Wolfgang Lenerz's little program col_obj now works a treat, too.

The result for negative numbers is quite understandable if one assumes that
the number is always rounded down by the INT operation.In languages
such as C whether one rounds towards 0 or rounds downwards is often an
implementation defined feature - i.e. there is no official standard.

That was a good PPS.
There are quite a few people waiting for this. I think one

He needs the SMSQ pipes and job events. While the first could surly be
