Hello

I’m printing variables using acapi_writereport..
Today I just couldn’t print doubles. Whenever I print a double (using %d), it just gives me huge random numbers.. not even doubles (without . In the number)
For testint I even tried to set double t=0.1 and then to print it, it was still a huge number.. it used to be fine so all I can guess is to delete cache files/refresh things or something like this..

Thanks..

Hi,

%d is for printing integers, please use %g or %f for that. You can even specify the number of decimals (2 in this example): %5.2f

Best, Akos

Thanks.. Is there a document that sums those things up? Maybe a guide on the best way to debug?

just do a web search for "printf format"
