Double type Assignment problem

[Guest_imported]

Hi ,

I am encountering a queer problem in a sample c program.

main()
{
double fld1;
fld1=2299595420;
Prinf("\n passed field value is %.0f "
}

It gives an output of value -1995371876. However i want to see the actual value of
2299595420.

This works fine if i cange the value to either 129959520 or increase the value to more than 10 digits. I found that it fails to give the assined value only when there are 10 digits with the starting digit as 2.

Can any of you please help as i am using this in a c routine.

Thanks in advance

Try the statement:
printf("\n passed field value is %10.0f ",fld1);

I hope it works;
