#110815 - Not only but also Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Apart from the evaluation version not supporting floating point, this is a particularly bad piece of C code
1. variable a is an unsigned short yet it is assigned the result of pow() which returns a float or possibly a double (I forget which) 2. pow() expects floating point arguments but it is passed an unsigned short - it should be cast to float. 3. This about the most inefficient way I can think of to raise a variable to a power of 2!!! Yuk!!! Give me assembler any day. Ian |
