Hi friends,

I want to know value of maximum number that can be defined in tcl. At a intermediate step in calculation i have power value e.g. [pow(x,y)] , y as 200000 so calculation is quitting due to floating point error.

Suggest me if it can be done by any other way.

Thanks in advance

    Dear Mandar,

    You cane covert the number to scientific number (e.g. 12.12E+05). Use format command to do so. ANd also 'expr' 'wide' commands you can use
