Strange warning

[Didier Bur]

Hi all,
In a method of a class, I have this as the first line:

def myMethod()
x=y=z=0.0

When loading the rb file, this message appears in the console:

@unknownuser said:

warning: Float 0.0 out of range

What am I doing wrong ?

Don't think you are doing anything wrong. It's the new Ruby 1.8.6 core in SU8 - it outputs more warnings than previous versions. I think it prints warnings about precision problems. (though I don't understand why 0.0 would be out of range...)

** Please, could you change the topic title to "Warning: Float out of range"

Do you get the same warning if you do:

def myMethod()
  x=y=z=(0.0e0)
end

I get no warnings at all at the Console.
