* updated lintian and fixed the warning about standards-version
-- Georges Khaznadar <georgesk@ofset.org> Thu, 29 Oct 2009 14:11:08 +0100
units-filter (3.0-2) unstable; urgency=low
* fixed a bug which was not detected by the test suite: the written
output for numbers lesser than 1 was false. Integrated one new test
in the suite.
* modified the routine used to round the numbers. As many examples
made by teachers use integer data, and divisions by 2, rounding
numbers whose mantissa should be 0.5 is not unfrequent.
Unfortunately computations with floats (for example with the
interpreter of Wims) often yelds unprecise results. This may cause
troublesome behaviors, when a mantissa which should be 0.5 is actually
0.4999999999999998 or so. Therefore, the routine used to round numbers
adds the fraction 1000000001/2000000000 before making a
trucation.
-- Georges Khaznadar <georgesk@ofset.org> Sun, 06 Sep 2009 16:30:16 +0200
