Not to start this back up but I noticed that IBM has PTF'd this issue...MF32434 http://www-912.ibm.com/a_dir/as4ptf.nsf/b3cb9d42f672b70f86256739004afa0f/e499f0e85b43791f86256e6800529943?OpenDocument ---------------------------- Bryan Dietz =================== Someone posted this question on the iSeries Network's RPG forum, and it stumped me, so I thought I'd bring it here and see what you guys think. I'm running the following code. The two numbers, VAR1 and VAR2 should have the same results, shouldn't they? d VAR2 S 30p 0 d VAR1 s 30p 0 c eval VAR2 = (16**15) c VAR2 dsply c eval VAR1 = (16**14) c eval VAR1 = VAR1 * 16 c dsply VAR1 c eval *inlr = *on The result of running this program looks like this: DSPLY 1152921504606846980 DSPLY 1152921504606846976 So, my question is, what's going on here? And, why would there be a difference of 4?! As far as I can tell, this only happens on V5R2. Can anyone confirm that it doesn't happen on older releases?
