Hi all,
Not sure if I am being daft or something, but it looks like
Math::BigInt isn't returning a value I expected.
I'm doing a test to make sure that 1 exbibyte (2**60) returns, as I
manually calculated, "1152921504606846976". Instead though, I get
"1152921504606850000". This looks like it rounded off..
Can anyone see why then:
my $size=1;
my $bytes=Math::BigInt->new($size*(2**60));
Rounds off?
Thanks!
Madi
