Re: Number of problems by platform (was: DB2/400 comparisons with other relational databases (specifically Oracle and SQL Server))

I remember reading through the PTF notes and found something like:
If you have a negative 7.4 variable and divide it by a positive 9.3 variable and
the result is a 5.5 variable, unpredictable results would occur.

And I remember thinking "Who the heck found this one!"

The last time I reported a bug that I could consistantly recreate and document
was at V2R1 on a B30.  I guess staying a little bit further from the edge
amounts to a little less bleeding. :)
