Returns of type double was incorrectly evaluated #5

For some problems that have double's as output, the tests of gettc can incorrectly fail. One example is http://community.topcoder.com/stat?c=problem_statement&pm=3561&rd=6519.

For the test case 3, the expected value was "7.637495090348122E7", and the result "76374950.9050914" was deemed incorrect. However, according to the FAQ (http://apps.topcoder.com/wiki/display/tc/SRM+Algorithm+Competition+FAQ), any answer with absolute or relative error of 1e-9 can still be deemed correct.

Thanks!

I'm actually aware of this issue, but my initial approach was rather naive. Now I'm using the implementation found in that FAQ. You can just replace the ~/.gettc/include/cpp/topcoder file with downloaded_gettc/dist/include/cpp/topcoder, which will work the same as a re-installation. Hopefully this correctly handles your case.

Yes. Now the results are judged correctly. Many thanks!
