- Open a new document
- Paste this:
((72 / 2.54) * 2.54)
- Run the "Evaluate Line" command from the Math bundle.
- Wonder where the result came from:
((72 / 2.54) * 2.54) = 71.99999999999999999999
Really.
Hi
Why a bug ?
Firstly 71.99999... = 72 like 0.999 ... =1
And in ((72 / 2.54) * 2.54) (72 / 2.54) is the first evaluation so the result is 28.34645669 ... and finally you get something correct
