So... you found a new way C++ help shoot yourself in the foot?
Brilliant!

The result of log10(0.0) in an IEC 60559 (==IEEE 754) environment is -INFINITY, and raises the "divide by zero" floating-point exception (C-99 Standard Normative Appendix F.9.3.8, included by reference in C++-2012)
The result of casting a value outside the range [INT_MIN, INT_MAX] to int is Undefined Behavior.
Beware - the compiler can do anything in response to Undefined Behavior, from giving a "reasonable" response to formatting your disk to making demons fly out of your nose! 
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Bonus points for a comp.lang.c reference. I wonder if you have a Blackstar 9000, I think it was, that always did something horrible when UB was invoked?

Thanks for the heads up.

Or for not checking the value of the variable for not allowed math expressions / undefined behaviour before using it

Quote: Turns out that now log10(0.0) returns -1,
This would be incorrect because the log10(0.1) is -1, i.e. 10 to the power -1 is 0.1. I'm hoping you meant after the cast but this sounds like something mickeysoft would do...

Yes, this is after the cast. But my whole point was to read the documentation. Just because it works now does not mean it is correct and will always work.
Within you lies the power for good - Use it!

[too lazy to look it up] how many ships are the Euro's smashing this time around?
|
|
|
|

Apparently there only 2
- the Arab Emirates
- NASA
- The Chinese Mission
It looks like 3, but it's only because the Chinese Mission doesn't exists until successful, or it never happened!

No, the Quantum Theory says that it exists OR exists not.

I heard according to their govt Mars has been a part of China since ancient times,
so it's not really a mission, just a routine visit.

You make a good point here!
Hey, why do you think Mars is a barren desert?
It's part of Mao great leap forward!

I never get hungry when I play it, because of what my player character eats. It makes Fallout's food selection look appetizing.
It's also kind of scary to play. But I finally sort of figured out my way around. It's on sale right now i think still, for $10 on PS4 and well worth it.

Interesting!
Maybe I should play Mad Max too, I need to diet!

Your character will scoop maggots out of rotting corpses and eat them without gagging or even tearing up a little. He doesn't flinch.

Apparently you use corpses for "maggot farming" and for making saltpeter (aka "salty pete") for producing gunpowder for ammunition.
This game is dark. It's pretty bad when one of your primary renewable resources is the dead.
