[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58908] same non-zero output becomes zero suddenly

[Torsten Lilge]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #58908 (project octave):

I think this is just the limitation given by the accuracy that is provided by
the double format. AFAIK, this 64 bit long number representation has 55 digits
mantissa. Taking into account that 10 binary digits represent numbers up to
approximately 3 decimal digits, then the numbers in your second example are
near to the available precision.
