Re: gnuplot cvs source bug

[BBands <bb...@ya...>]

Dear Plotters,

One factor you might want to consider in this regard
is the increasing use of gnuplot driven by scripts of
dynamically-typed languages--Python, Perl, Tcl, Ruby,
PHP... In such cases unexpected results can arise as a
result of integer division being the default. Perhaps
adopting a Python-like approach (// for integer
division) initially driven by a switch (set division
true|integer) and eventually defaulting to true might
help.

Best regards,

If you advance far enough, you arrive at the beginning.
