Hi HS,

❝ @ElMaestro: Do you round in C?

Yes, I gave it some thought in C. Perhaps a little oddly, but in the C standard C will round down for integers (i.e. if you convert 125.8 to an integer the standard will be to tell you the result is 125). For recent sims I therefore need to make sure that the compiler does not convert to integers before the comparison with 125 or 80 is done. This is done e.g. by comparison with a true double precision figure like 80.00 rather than 80.
