Dear all !
Could someone please help me with the following problem. I want to compute
0.5 ^ 0.75, which should give something close to 0.5946...
/*********************************************************************/
/* test.c */
/*********************************************************************/
int main()
{
double result;
result = pow(0.5, 0.75);
printf("The result is: %f\n", result);
return 0;
}
/*********************************************************************/
With Cygnus B19.1, I obtain the following:
> test
The result is: 16416.000000
Mingw32 gives:
> test
The result is: 32.000000
Am I doing something wrong ???????????????????
