Re: [boost] Boost test - displaying float point numbers

I don't see where you're getting your # of digits my calculations show that it's around 14 for 64bit floating and around 7 for 32bit numeric_limits<>::digits10 shows 6 for float, 15 for double on vc8

Those are the numbers of decimal digits that can be stored without loss in binary form, the number of decimal digits needed to represent a binary number without loss is somewhat higher (about 2 digits higher will usually suffice). John.
