[Gambas-user] what's wrong with this long integer?

[Stefano Palmeri]

I have a failure with a long integer:


DIM IntMyNumber AS Long

IntMyNumber = 90 * 89 * 88 * 87 * 86 * 85
PRINT IntMyNumber

returns 1605934816

--------------------------------------------
Bash returns the correct value:

echo $[90*89*88*87*86*85]

448282533600 (that is less than 9.223.372.036.854.775.807)

So why Gambas fails even if I declared it as Long?

Gambas 2.15.1

Saluti,

Stefano
