Displaying Very Small or Very Large Results


Issue

Because GoldSim only saves results with single precision although it computes with double precision (see Precision-of-Computed-and-Stored-Results Precision of Computed and Stored Results in GoldSim), how can I display values that are beyond the range of single precision?

Resolution

Define a variable that is equal to the log of the result that you are interested in, and save the results for that variable. This will allow you to capture the full range of double precision values (roughly 1E-308 to 1E308).
