QB64 Discussion / Re: I Used to be Here

Which of these 2 sites, ORG or NET, is the official download source of QB64? Is it both? If so, will it be the same version?

QB64 Discussion / Browser Crash/Mis-display Causes QB64.EXE to Crash
« on: March 05, 2018, 10:14:30 pm »
Whenever 1 of my browsers crashes or plays up it causes my Basic . EXE (running in Untitled window) to crash as "QB64.EXE Stopped or something". This happens with both IE11 & FF58.

I think the browser crashes are the result of bad HTML from the server, but why should it affect QB64?

I'm pretty sure it's not my Basic program as I can restart it & it continues past the crash point. Also it never crashes except immediately after a bad browser event, usually a crash.

The last Windows event reported:

Now I'm confused :(.

[abandoned, outdated and now likely malicious qb64 dot net website - don’t go there] is back.

Is it "better" to post on [abandoned, outdated and now likely malicious qb64 dot net website - don’t go there] or on here, QB64.org? Or is that a silly Q?

QB64 Discussion / Re: LNG Arithmetic Bug?

Thanks, @bplus, you've given me an idea.

By switching from LONG to INTEGER64 I can extend the scope of my primes program from 2.1 E9 to 9.2 E18 :).

Duh! I should have seen that. It's so obvious.

Thanks, @bplus.

QB64 Discussion / LNG Arithmetic Bug?
« on: February 28, 2018, 06:37:40 pm »
Can anyone tell me why the enclosed simple, but large, DEFLNG arithemetic does not give the correct answer? Is it a bug or can I just not calculate?

It happens with other large values but I cannot sus out a pattern except that Scale is a power of 2 & from my experience Floating Point errors usually occur at powers of 2.

I have replaced IF (OCCUR >= YPOINTS * Scale) by IF (OCCUR / Scale >= YPOINTS) & it works correctly.

This was happening with QB64 v0.980, so I came back here today to get the latest version, but it's still happening.

Hi, all.

I registered for the QB64 Forums exactly 4 years ago under this same nick. It tells me this username no longer exists, so I re-register.

Has it all been revamped since I was last here?
