Re: integer overflow vs float overflow

[Milind Gupta <milind.gupta@...>]

I use mingw gcc 4.8.1. using print format %f:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

int main()

{

    float a = 1;

    while(1)

    {

        a = a*10;

        printf("a is %f\n",a);

    }

    return 0;

}

My C version (gcc version 4.8.2) displays inf with print format "%.e".
What compiler and print format do you use?
