andybiochem Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 (edited) Hi!I have searched the forum for topics similar to this problem and couldn't find anything related.I'm writing a program that uses some very large numbers, and I need to define these numbers as variables.Why does this happen when I try to define a variable??:This doesn't happen when I define the number as a string inside speech marks....is it just that I cannot define such a large number as a number?In the help-file FAQ it says:Number range (floating point): 1.7E–308 to 1.7E+308 with 15-digit precisionwhat is meant by 15 digit precision exactly?

Why does this happen when I try to define a variable??: This doesn't happen when I define the number as a string inside speech marks....is it just that I cannot define such a large number as a number? In the help-file FAQ it says: Number range (floating point): 1.7E308 to 1.7E+308 with 15-digit precision what is meant by 15 digit precision exactly?This means that a number can only have 15 digits. You are using 21 digits in the example shown.
