FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
C:\>java -version
java version "1.4.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)

FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
Windows NT Version 4.0

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
double a = 12.10d;
double b = 10.11d;
				
double c = a-b ;

"The value of c is 1.9900000000000002" i think it should be
1.99   (by basic maths)
So the statement 1.99 == c gives false

as c is having the value 1.9900000000000002
the logical answer to the output c + b is
12.1000000000000002

but the actule answer is 12.1 ????
which is equal to a

The above thing Violating the basic maths...






STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Execute the code once

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
double a = 12.10d;
double b = 10.11d;
				
double c = a-b ;

value of c should be 1.99

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
public class sh
{
   public static void main(String w[])
   {
	   try
	   {
			double a = 12.10d;
			double b = 10.11d;
				
            double c = a-b ; // 1.99
			//Point 1
			System.out.println(c == 1.99d);  /* output false ,
Logically it should be true */
			
			//Point 2
		System.out.println(" value of c -> "+c);  /* out put is
1.9900000000000002 so it is not 1.99 !!!!!! */
			
                //Point 3
		System.out.println( (c + b)); // ouput 12.1 ??????
	        //Point 4
		System.out.println( (c + b)== a); //true !!!
	   }catch(Exception e)
	   {
	      System.out.println(e);
	   }
  }
