| Jan 29, 2018 at 22:23 | comment | added | KDM | I'd like, specifically to know why the results of an integer conversion on the results of pow() DOES NOT work for powers of 2. For me, pow(2,3) returns 8.00, but while int(8.00) returns 8, int(pow(2,3)) returns 7! | |

Error: It can go up to 2^32 - 1 if you use an unsigned long.
