Our "e" is defined in math.c

And is assigned as a "short long" array

Could that be the problem? Does normal "C" (Not C++) works with "short long"?

[steven114]

How large do you want the numbers to be? Short long, although it may be valid, sounds like an iffy type to use...

Try char/short/int/long instead.

[Mike Betts]

"short long" is just fine. Try changing the name of your variable "e" to "edward" and recompile. My guess is that "e" is used already somewhere else.
