Client Terminal Build and Version (32 or 64 bit)

4.00 build 711

Problem description

Since mid 600 builds I've noticed incorrect math operations resulting in rubbish 2 bit for the double or float results

Sequence of action

An example:

Alert(MathPow(0.00000033,1/3));

gives out an answer of 1

where

Alert(MathPow(0.00000033,0.3333));

gives approximately correct answer of ~0.00691

Obtained result

Broken double point arithmetic

Expected result

Correct implementation of basic arithmetic

Additional details

UNACCEPTABLE

This is not a bug.

1/3 gives 0 as a result. 1 and 3 are both integers. You should use 1./3 to indicate 1 as a double.
