CDBL converts a value to the closest DOUBLE-precision value.
- Syntax: CDBL(n)
- Rounds to the closest DOUBLE decimal point value.
- Also can be used to define a value as DOUBLE-precision.
Example:
- A=454.67
- PRINT A; CDBL(A)
- 454.67 454.6700134277344
- Prints a double-precision version of the single-precision value stored in the variable named A.
- The last 11 numbers in the double-precision number change the value in this example, since A was previously defined to only two-decimal place accuracy.
