Why am I getting different notations?
The straight "double" type indexes things as a string w/o doing any sort of normalization. So a value of 100.000 will be indexed and stored as 100.000. "sdouble" needs to parse the float, and it gets more normalized as a byproduct. If anything, one could consider lack of normalization a bug with double, not sdouble. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com
