[Scilab-users] Strange floating point issue below %eps

[antoine monmayrant]

Hello Samuel,

Is this some IEEE standard overflow wraparound?

For information, Julia (0.6) does not behave exactly in the same way.
Both 'print((2^53 + 2^2) + 1 == (2^53 + 2^2))' and  'print((2^53 + 2^1) 
+ 1 == (2^53 + 2^1))' return false.
