  • The 64-bit compatible DAMath archive with
    the units DAMath V1.00,
    DAMCmplx V0.56,
    DAMTools V0.46,
    and Special Functions V1.32.07
    has essentially the same updates as AMath. Unit DAMath additionally
    contains a bug-free frac function for FPC 3.1.1/64-bit.

  • Note for FreePascal users:

    The errors with FPC 3.1.1-r20:38296_[2018/02/21] are corrected: The bad FPC design decision to evaluate constants like 2.0/9.0 in single precision,
    is fixed by using integer(!) quotients like 2/9 (hoping this will stay correct in future versions).
    The broken frac function for 64-bit will be fixed in upcoming FPC snapshots
    (see https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=33635),
    until then DAMath defines its own frac function for FPC64/311.

    are fixed.

    avoid some inaccuracies introduced by
    FreePascal’s -O4 fastmath ‚optimization‘ (FPC 2.7.1, 3.0.0/1, 3.1.1): Among
    others floating point division by constants may be replaced by multiplication
    with the inverse, leading to quotients which are sometimes
    not correctly rounded!

     I recommend to turn off this feature using
    {$OPTIMIZATION NOFASTMATH} or with command line option –OoNOFASTMATH!
