Hello!
If I try to raise a decimal number to a power I get the following error:
Only integers are supported for this operation
Code: |
void MyTest(){
float Number=5.5;
float Result=0;
Result=Number^0.885;
}
|
Any ideas? _________________ George. |

hmm... I don't see how you use the POW() function...
oopsy.. I figured it out( 2nd pot of coffee.)
the '^' is the bitwise OR operator in CCS C, not the X to the power of Y operator....
While your project is open, press F11 and the CCS manual pops up, serch the functions list, find POW(), there's a description/example there.
add code lke this...
#INCLUDE <math.h>;
...
...
result=POW(number,0.885);

Actually XOR, not OR. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) |
