It only shows the first 17 digits, since thats as much accuracy as floating point numbers have anyway. both numbers actually evaluate to the same double (00 00 00 00 00 00 E0 43) so it will have no effect on calculations.

If VC's printf() doesn't work properly, then that means Khaled just has to either implement his own, or find someone who implemented it correctly. You're right, it will work fine for calculations, but in the event you need to display it to a user, it won't.
