decimal number Power
PostPosted: Thu Jan 09, 2020 3:42 am     Reply with quote

Hello!

If I try to raise a decimal number to a power I get the following error:
Only integers are supported for this operation


Code:

void MyTest(){

   float Number=5.5;
   float Result=0;
   
   Result=Number^0.885;

}


Any ideas?

hmm... I don't see how you use the POW() function...


oopsy.. I figured it out( 2nd pot of coffee.)

the '^' is the bitwise OR operator in CCS C, not the X to the power of Y operator....


While your project is open, press F11 and the CCS manual pops up, serch the functions list, find POW(), there's a description/example there.

add code lke this...

#INCLUDE <math.h>;
...
...
result=POW(number,0.885);
