I am using the latest gcc with Netbeans on Windows. Why doesn't long double
work? Is the printf
specifier %lf
wrong?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>int main(void){ float aboat = 32000.0; double abet = 5.32e-5; long double dip = 5.32e-5; printf("%f can be written %e\n", aboat, aboat); printf("%f can be written %e\n", abet, abet); printf("%lf can be written %le\n", dip, dip); return 0;}
Output:
32000.000000 can be written 3.200000e+0040.000053 can be written 5.320000e-005-1950228512509697500000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.000000can be written 2.725000e+002Press [Enter] to close the terminal ...
