<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a value that ranges between 48.01

<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Arial size=2>for a in range(48.35,

<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is it possible to get a range of a float
value?</FONT></SPAN></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR>It depends. What would
you like it to be? All numbers in that range? They're uncountably infinite, so
no way we could ever get that out of the computer. All actual float values?
Depends too much on the implementation of the specific machine you're working on
to be workable. <BR><BR>Identifying values below 48.35 and above 48.45 is simply
done by:<BR>if value < 48.35 or value > 48.45 then...<BR><BR>No need to
first create the range of values<BR clear=all><BR>-- <BR>Andre Engels, <A
