because of decimal floating point storage innacurracy and default literal stored as double: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_error_mitigation try: if (0.7f>a) instead, or log value of 0.7-a in exponent notation: printf("Hi %e",0.7-a);

Slick no, the result of 0.7>a is true, because 0.7 is double and a is float ^^

Kaptan Kaan Yıldırım you can also log 0.7f-a to see the difference: printf("Hi %e",0.7f-a);

Because .7 is not greater than .7, they are equal. test: if a == 0.7
