Re: Floating Point Question

Here is a fully working boilerplate for atof:
When you compile this, make the default activation group *NO and
the bind directory QC2LE.  You might have problems with the printer
"PRINTER" which is just a generic printer file I made, 132 column.

0001.00  * Compile add the QC2LE binding Directory
0002.00 FPRINTER   O    F  132        PRINTER
0003.00
0004.00 D atof            PR             8F   ExtProc('atof')
0005.00 D String                          *   Value Options(*String)
0009.00
0013.00 D Float           S              8F
0022.00
0027.00 C                   Eval      Float = atof('1.23456e02')
0028.00 C                   Except    PrintFlt
0029.00 C
0030.00 C                   Eval      *INLR = *On
0030.01
0054.00 OPRINTER   E            PrintFlt
0055.00 O                                              'Float: '
0056.00 O                       Float
