[Solved] More flexible Debug output

[Little John]

I would appreciate it, if the output of Debug would be more flexible and thus sometimes more precise.

Currently, e.g.

Code: Select all

Debug 2/5

displays

0

(tested with the internal debugger of PB 5.11 and PB 5.20 beta 16).

In order to see the correct result 0.4, we have to write

Code: Select all

Debug StrD(2/5)

It seems that Debug rounds the result of the division down to an integer, before displaying it.

It would be nice if

Code: Select all

Debug 2/5

would display 0.4.

Thanks for considering this suggestion.

2/5 is an integer division, so 0 is the correct result. Have you tried 'Debug 2.0/5.0'? That should work.

Even just "Debug 2.0/5" works. All you need is a float somewhere
in the equation, and the whole equation is done as a float. That's
how PureBasic does calculations.

Oops, I had forgotten about that. Thanks!
