I'm going to recode the sequence in C tommorow (I'm in Seattle right now, not Basel, so it's late). if it dumps core under C, it's Lisp, and if it doesn't, it's most likely R. I'll report back when I get access to the internet tommorow (I'll be in Iowa, but not sure when I'll get the laptop conne

It doesn't seem to help. I suspect it is more related to signal handling changes than the stack. Note that I dropped that from the subject line for my email which started this thread, but I agree, I didn't mention signal handing. On 4/19/06, Prof Brian Ripley <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Tony, >

This is related to this FAQ: http://stat.cmu.edu/R/CRAN/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Why-doesn_0027t-R-think-these-numbers-are-equal_003f What you can do is create the sequence of integers from 6155 to 6200 rather than using floats and then divide by 100 in your subsequent calculation. Until the point you

Another thing to notice (rather than, it would seem, assume), is that using round() doesn't do any "better": ### without rounding > print(seq(61.55, 61.59, by=.01) , digits=22) [1] 61.547 61.555 61.570 61.578 [5] 61.586 ### with roundi
