Hi,
In case of -9.99, the negative sign is displayed only if the variable is negative.
It does not displays the - sign when positive value is passed to it.
Thanks,
Gomathi. |

12 bytes
-(9) = 9
.99 = 3

12 |

Dick,
I think you forgot the sign byte, s/b 13? |

Jack,
It's -(9). That should give only 9; plus that of .99 = 3 giving a total of only 12. |

Hi Arun,
You're right, I'm looking at -(9).99 and seeing -9(9).99  |
