The following piece of code outputs 0.1000000000001 float a=0.1; printf("%lf",a); But if I add a 10 times as long float b=0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1+0.1; printf("lf",b); It outputs as 0.999999999999989 But if a=0.1 is stored as 0.1000000000001 then the answer should be greater than 10 due to the 1 in last column.Then why is …

I wrote a short program to factor numbers, and it works in most cases. The problem I am getting is that when I use a very large number I get "Floating point exception: 8." I am assuming that I am trying to divide by 0 on line 43 or 46, …

#include<stdio.h> #include<conio.h> void main() { float a[5][5],x[3];float t,s; int i,j,k; printf("enter a matrix of order 3*4"); for(i=0;i<3;i++) { for(j=0;j<4;j++) { scanf("%f",&a[i][j]); } } for(i=0;i<3;i++) { for(j=0;j<4;j++) printf("%f ",a[i][j]); printf("\n"); } for(i=0;i<=1;i++) { for(j=i+1;j<=2;j++) { t=a[j][i]/a[i][i]; for(k=i;k<=3;k++) a[j][k]=a[j][k]-t*a[i][k]; } } printf("The upper triangular matrix is as\n"); for(i=0;i<3;i++) { for(j=0;j<4;j++) printf(" %f",a[i][j]); …
