Papyrus float comparison

[darknotfear]

DebugLog("" + 0.0001 as float) ;0.000100
DebugLog("" + (0.000000 < 0.0001)) ;False
DebugLog("" + Math.abs(0.00000)) ;0.000000
DebugLog("" + Math.abs(0.00000 - 0.00000)) ;0.000000
DebugLog("" + (Math.abs(0.00000 - 0.00000) < 0.0001)) ;False
DebugLog("" + (Math.abs(0.00000 - 0.00000) < 0.001)) ;TRUE

 

The log output is at the right after the comma.

But why? What I did wrong or is there anything to do with float precision?

Huh. First thought - "when is string conversion done - before or after comparison?.." So, if you put comparison inside an If and then put into log just predefined string based on true or false - does it also glitch?

Yes it still does.

I changed float comparion into abs(a-b) < 0.001 now.
