Subject: [gentoo-user] bc only does integer division
Date: Mon, 04 Sep 2006 22:05:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4776824.o8SQFdNK48@m-id.message-center.info> (raw)
Hello!
When I called "bc -l", I used to be able to do proper divisions,
ie. 1/4 returned 0.25. But now:
alexander@blatt /all $ bc -l
bc 1.06.94

1/4
0
sys-devel/bc-1.06.94
Any idea what's going wrong here?
Thanks,
