Problem while compiling the code
- by Atul
Can someone points me the problem in the code when compiled with gcc 4.1.0.
#define X 10
int main()
{
double a = 1e-X;
return 0;
}
I am getting error:Exponent has no digits.
When i replace X with 10, it works fine. Also i checked with g++ -E command to see the file with preprocessors applied, it has not replaced X with 10.
I was under the impression that preprocessor replaces every macro defined in the file with the replacement text with applying any intelligence. Am I wrong?
I know this is a really silly question but I am confused and I would rather be silly than confused :).
Any comments/suggestions.
