[comp.sys.apollo] precision of real numbers...

i am having trouble with an apollo 3000 and 4000 in calculating
"small real numbers" (eg 0.0000002etc)
the program (in pascal) gives an answer the order of 150.etc.
i havn't done a great deal of testing yet, but has anyone else
found same or similar behaviour....
