I have a simple command that is creating a vector. Test = (51.7:.1:130)' I then iterate through this vector and use the values to search in a list of data that I have. What I find, is that Matlab is actually adding very small numbers to the end of some of my values. For instance 65.5 truly equals 65.500000… However, 65.6 (when you double click) equals 65.600000000000010
I can not think of a logical reason for this behavior. Now, I certainly can go ahead and round the vector before I loop, but that shouldn't be necessary. I'd like to understand why it can't create the vector that I specified.
Thanks for your help, Brian
