Comments

CLC is very useful for simple calculations which use just two different numbers. There must be a space between each part of the calculation, otherwise CLC will not work. Due to limitations of the 80x86 architecture and computers in general, the result may not be very accurate if you have too many decimal places. This is an inherent flaw of using binary to represent floating point numbers and not a problem with CLC itself.
