Code from "The Computational Beauty of Nature" managed to crash CWM under GNU/Linux+X. No issues with FVWM. WIth LibdieHard I managed to avoid the crash. Maybe some ANSI C code from the 90's doesn't like current layouts... On FP precision, sh has almost none, AWK often has up to 20 bit and 53 with gawk and the math library. Ditto with bc -l. Calc has an arbitrary decimal precision and it's really fast. https://github.com/lcn2/calc https://github.com/lcn2/calc
