The comma in "if (all(abs(w - w0) < 0,01))" strongly suggests that we have a locale problem (something is messing with LC_ALL and/or LC_NUMERIC). We have seen some of these unexpected locale changes on Microsoft platforms earlier -- as I keep saying: Gnome sometimes tries too hard to be like Windows... -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

It's a locale problem. I can reproduce this bug by relaunching my GNOME session with the Spanish locale. Numerical values are getting mangled because, in Spanish, decimals are represented with "," and (I'm guessing after a quick look at gnumeric) scientific notation requires a "+" or "-" prefix. Please submit a bug report. Thank you for your patience.
