truncation when reading variables from netcdf file? [message #77615] Thu, 15 September 2011 18:32

When reading a variable from a netcdf file in IDL, does IDL truncate
the numbers when it saves them into an array? For example, I am
reading in a floating array from a netcdf file, and the numbers in the
file all go to 16 decimal places. I save the numbers into a double
array, but even double-precision numbers only go to about 14 decimal
places, right?
