Major bugs in SDMB re-skin fixed. What do you think?

[septimus]

I’m afraid I won’t try to keep up with this thread. Some big changes have been made, but more new problems were introduced than identified problems fixed. Preview is still broken.

The intolerable bug with the CODE tag was not addressed. I guess it’s considered an unimportant exotic feature most Dopers don’t use.

I hereby petition the Mods to delete all my posts that use CODE.
The new “improved” :eek: rendering of CODE makes my old posts look like they were written by an idiot.

… But Kahan summation is a beautiful little method! I am perfectionistic enough that I use Kahan’s method, e.g. when calculating statistical moments. One big caveat for the C programmer:

/* Do NOT compile this with any compiler optimization !
 * The optimizer would "figure out" that kp->carry is being set to zero
 * and eliminate the essence of the method!
 */
double kahan_add(double addend, struct Floatsum *kp)
{
        double y = addend - kp->carry;
        double tmp = kp->sum + y;
        kp->carry = (tmp - kp->sum) - y;
        kp->sum = tmp;
        return kp->sum + kp->carry;
}
