Follow-up Comment #5, bug #43734 (project octave): I'm tempted to fix this particular report by just adding a tolerance to the built-in self test. When doing numerical calculations on computers one can't really expect to do better than the machine precision. So while this is annoying that the answer is not exact, it is what you would expect. eps(2.72) ans = 4.4409e-16 _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?43734> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
