http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=5174 Summary: -x ^^ 0 returns -1 Product: D Version: D2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com ReportedBy: ibuclaw ubuntu.com Code: import std.stdio; import std.math; void main(string[] args) { writefln("test: %s%6s", "pow()", "^^"); writefln("-3^^0: %s%10s", pow(-3, 0), -3^^0); writefln("-2^^0: %s%10s", pow(-2, 0), -2^^0); writefln("-1^^0: %s%10s", pow(-1, 0), -1^^0); writefln(" 0^^0: %s%10s", pow( 0, 0), 0^^0); writefln(" 1^^0: %s%10s", pow( 1, 0), 1^^0); writefln(" 2^^0: %s%10s", pow( 2, 0), 2^^0); writefln(" 3^^0: %s%10s", pow( 3, 0), 3^^0); } Outputs: test: pow() ^^ -3^^0: 1 -1 -2^^0: 1 -1 -1^^0: 1 -1 0^^0: 1 1 1^^0: 1 1 2^^0: 1 1 3^^0: 1 1 Note that zero, and positive to the power of 0 match the return value of pow(). But negative numbers to the power of 0 don't. Marking as major because this could cause confusion.

Part of the confusion was that it gets parsed down like so: => -3 ^^ 0 => -(3 ^^ 0) => -(1) When I expected it to be: => -3 ^^ 0 => ((-3) ^^ 0) => (1) I'll assume that this behaviour is normal, sorry for the noise. :~) -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------

Kyllingstad <bugzilla kyllingen.net> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |bugzilla kyllingen.net Resolution|FIXED |INVALID 02:14:20 PST --- The negation and exponentiation operators have the same relative precedence in D as in mathematics. I would be extremely surprised if I wrote -2^^2 and got 4. Correcting the resolution of this bug, since nothing was fixed. -- Configure issuemail: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: -------
