Dear Holger,
I've checked the Float class source and narrowed the error to this
scenario, which is a differend code point but raises the same error:
(start gst in command line and enter the following:)
2 raisedToInteger: (-0.00019623982224262149) exponent -
(-0.00019623982224262149) class precision + 1
Going into details:
st>(-0.00019623982224262149) exponent
-13
st> (-0.00019623982224262149) class precision
53
st> (-0.00019623982224262149) class precision + 1
54
So, -13 - 54 = -67
2^(-67) with calculator: 2^(-67) = 6.7762636e-21
Evaluating the following leads to the same:
st> 2 raisedToInteger: -67
Object: 1 error: The program attempted to divide a number by zero
ZeroDivide(Exception)>>signal (ExcHandling.st:254)
SmallInteger(Number)>>zeroDivide (SysExcept.st:1386)
Fraction>>setNumerator:setDenominator: (Fraction.st:485)
Fraction class>>numerator:denominator: (Fraction.st:66)
Fraction>>raisedToInteger: (Fraction.st:510)
SmallInteger(Number)>>raisedToInteger: (Number.st:922)
UndefinedObject>>executeStatements (a String:1)
best regards
Robert
