What is the real value returned by cooccur #36

Thank you for your fast responses. I want to get the number of times each word cooccurred with other words. In cooccur, is the "real val" in the struct "cooccur_rec" the count? If yes why is it double and not integer?

Doubles can represent integers with perfect precision that are actually larger than a typical int32. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1848700/biggest-integer-that-can-be-stored-in-a-double.
