This has probably been discussed all over the place,
but my google of the mailing list didn't find something
that satisfied.
The contents of mytest1.mac :
----------------------------
/* mytest1.mac */
2/3;
2/3;
2.0/3;
0.66666666666667;
---------------------
My batch run in test mode:
-------------------------------------
(%i1) display2d:false$
(%i2) 2.0/3;
(%o2) 0.66666666666667
(%i3) batch ( "mytest1.mac ", test )$
********************** Problem 1 ***************
Input:
2/3
Result:
2/3
... Which was correct.
********************** Problem 2 ***************
Input:
2.0/3
Result:
0.66666666666667
This differed from the expected result:
0.66666666666667
1/2 tests passed.
The following 1 problem failed: (2)
