Xalan-C does indeed have DOUBLE precision resolution. This table effectively illustrates the number of decimal digits to binary bit resolution.
3 decimal digits ~= 10 bits 6 decimal digits ~= 20 bits 9 decimal digits ~= 30 bits 12 decimal digits ~= 40 bits 15 decimal digits ~= 50 bits 18 decimal digits ~= 60 bits I was thinking that 17-18 digits was FLOAT instead of DOUBLE. The above analysis proves me wrong, Xalan-C is truly of DOUBLE precision. - Steve --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: xalan-dev-unsubscr...@xml.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: xalan-dev-h...@xml.apache.org
