Why do you think this is a problem? Conversion from float to double
can't raise any exceptions, no bits are lost, and
(double) a < 200.0
and
a < 200.0f
have the exa
I wonder if someone could help shed light on this for me.
Based on the statement in ISO C spec (ISO 9899:1990) section '6.1.3.1 Floating
