BUG: Incorrect Evaluation of Equation with Variables

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

In the Command window, issue the following commands:

   SET DECIMALS TO 5
   mVar = 1
   ? mVar + (1048575+(mVar/1000)) = 1048576.001
				

The value .T. (True) should be echoed to the screen but .F. is returned instead.

The following recommendations may be used as alternative solutions to this problem:

• Replacing mVar (inside the parentheses) with 1 exhibits the correct behavior, as does removing the outside parentheses.
• Using the ROUND() function may also solve this problem:

        ? ROUND(mVar+(1048575+(mVar/1000)), 5) = 1048576.001
  						

This behavior does not occur in Visual FoxPro 3.0.
