How accurate can floats be in PureBasic?

Post by ^OO^ »

Hi :-)

Can PureBasic work with 64bit floats or even 80bit ones?

And

Can PureBasic compile a DLL in Windows?

Thank you chaps and chapesses ;-)

Hi, I've written a small Userlib you can use

http://www.pan-galactic-gargle-blaster.de/F64.zip

Try it out, but be aware, it's just a hack and not quite as fast as the original would be.
