Re: Basic Math Help

Doubles are even more memory-intensive than floats on the PIC18F (well, on any architecture, but especially so on the PIC). Using them probably is a bad idea, I doubt you'd ever need that precision for FIRST. Also, double use the %lf token, for "long float." I don't think %dl has the meaning you think it does.
