odd printf results

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

I was just programming along very nicely, writing stuff to a file
to help debug the code and reading it back again when I found
that a line something like this:

printf(filenum,"value %d\n",buffer[x])

produced this line in the file:

value inf

or sometimes:

value nan

I suppose they mean "too big" and "too small" respectively.
Just a little suprise. I expected a number since I had specified
an integer (%d), not a string. Maybe its in the documentation
and I didn't see it. I'll turn off the 'without warning' and run it again.
