Date: 2000-03-01T00:00:00+00:00	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <zGgv4.124$zz5.13407@news.pacbell.net> (raw)

Why does
    type duration is delta 1.0E-13 range 0.0 .. 0.000_1;
    f : float;
    i : integer := 10_000;
begin
    f := float(0.000_0001/i);
    ada.text_io.put_line(float'image(f));
    f := float(duration'(0.000_0001)/i);
    ada.text_io.put_line(float'image(f));
    f := 0.000_0001/float(i);
    ada.text_io.put_line(float'image(f));
print
 0.00000E+00
 9.94760E-12
 1.00000E-11

   Is <universal real> / <integer> always treated as a call on
function "/"(Left : Standard.Duration; Right : Integer)
return Standard.Duration;  ?
