Try worshiping Satan. Hey, it worked for the crew who created FreeBASIC.

Something for hard math freaks! QB64 is more correct than Julia (see above)?
Code: (Select All)
julia> 1.4 \ 1
0.7142857142857143
In Octave too! Is this a bug in two math programs?
Code: (Select All)
octave:1> 1.5 \ 1
ans = 0.6667
octave:2> 1.4 \ 1
ans = 0.7143
octave:3> mod(1.4, 1)
ans = 0.4000
octave:4> 1.4 / 1
ans = 1.4000
octave:5>
