Sirs,
I am puzzled. I am using gpc on a unix system (Irix 6.5). When the compiler was built, we had to turn off the -g flag everywhere in the Makefiles(which, we understand, is a common problem) in order to complete the build. Below is a small program which simply writes out a real number using 'writeln'. It compiles fine, but generates garbage output:
program testprog(input,output); var x : real;
begin x := 10.0; writeln('The value of x is ',x); end.
This code produces the following line of output on my machine(SGI):
The value of x is /// /////////e-//8//8
What's up with this???? Thanks for any help you can give. Stuart Pope
