Hello everybody My collegue and I noticed a strange behaviour of R on different platforms. It's a simple computation, but results are rather different.
On Windows XP: > floor(log(8,2)) [1] 3 which is what one should expect. Here's instead the result with Mac OS X (same version, 2.5.0 (2007-04-23)) > floor(log(8,2)) [1] 2 Is it a "bug" in R or in the operating system? Anyway, it's quite a surprising one. _____________________________________ Fausto Galli Institute of Finance University of Lugano Via G.
