Dear All:

I wrote a small code and met some strange things...

program test
implicit none
real :: a

a = .123456
a = a*10**10
WRITE(*,*) a
...

stop
end program test

The code replied me a strange # to a as: 0.174081E+09

What's wrong with that? How to solve it out? By the way,

if I use

a = a*10**9
WRITE(*,*) a ! <-- get 0.123456E+09


or

WRITE(*,*) .123456*10.**10 ! <-- get 0.123456E+10

They worked well.

Thanks
