Are sure that you are using Velocity 1.5?
I just cut and pasted the example below into my installation and it worked
fine.

hello sir
actually i am using the velocity 1.5 version itself.... and as if i am
going to use or declare the variable with out the qutations like this:::
#set($a=300.05)
#set($b=500.05)
#set($c=$a+$b)
the velocity engine is displaying some errors like:::
*type* Exception report
*message*
*description* *The server encountered an internal error () that prevented
it from fulfilling this request.*
*exception*
javax.servlet.ServletException
: org.apache.velocity.exception.ParseErrorException: Lexical error:
org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 66, column 48.
Encountered: "2" (50), after : "."

*root cause*

48. Encountered: "2" (50), after : "."
org.apache.velocity.Template.process(Template.java:141)
so my thinking is that the decimal points placed in the float or double
value are not detected and if we use qutations ... it is taking the value
as a string but not as float or double...
so please kindly help me in this matter
thanking you
