Hi,



When I try to execute (+ 1.1 1.2) I get error:
QuoteERR: value expected in function + : .1


NewLisp version is v.10.7.1 64-bit on Linux (Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS) IPv4/6 UTF-8 libffi



What's the problem here with floats and how to fix it ?

Hello,



Take a look at your locale with (set-locale).



This sets the locale to german with , as decimal seperator:

(set-locale "de_DE")



And note that + is for integer-math. Use (add ... ...) for floats.



And the doc has good explanations for that. ;-)
