Hi everyone,

Is this megaproblem Windows only?

put 2 ^ .5 = 1.414214
put pi = 3.14159265358979323846
put pi * 1 = 3.141593 --- ooops...
put 0.0005 * 0.0005 = 0

Other than start writting out externals, 
is there a way to use "Real" math precision?

Like PI!
but avoiding 
put 10000000000000 * 0.0000001 * pi = 3141592.65359 
which is as precise as it gets workaround... ;)

thanks for any suggestions
Xavier
