FOR LOOP "STEP" ?

Hello

Quote:This is peculiar to say the least:

FOR A FROM 0 to pi STEP pi/6 DO
IF A == pi/3 then
print("IT NEVER GETS THERE!!!!!!");
END;
END;

Yes, you are correct! interestingly, if you print the successive values of A, you will see that the 2nd value is not what you would expect it to be.
The reason for it is that the 'step' is done in a full 15 digit precision add instead of a rounded 12 digit. This is what causes the issue.
Sorry about that.
