I used visual C++ and Turbo C compilersand I used the same code for both, I only converted the c++ to c but the output is different. Why does it happen? please help me, I really can't understand why..... Actually this is a conversion from java. It was successfully converted to C++ but there was an error converting it in C language. I used the code I converted in C++ so that it will be easier to convert it in C language. Then the problem occurred and I reviewed it so many times but still I can’t get the desired result. THANKS A LOT.....

Post your code, with the expected output and the output that you receive. And press the Anti-Panic button in your mind. :)

thanks... Well I already posted it. Hope I'll be able to find answers soon because I really need it in our project.
I think that the Anti-Panic button in my mind is not working that good anymore... anyway thanks....

Okay, compiling it mingw-g++, I get the same output as posted, which I guess is correct. What's the C code look like? There's no problem with the C++ code, but can you post the C code you're trying to compile?

EDIT:
Remember, converting from C++ to C does not mean just trying to recompile the C++ code with a C compiler.

Different compilers have different standards on various things like floating points, etc...

its a good idea to indent your code as well. It not only makes it easier to read but easier to find problems as well

I'm sure that's just the lack of code tags.
