$Here is something I've just noticed in using the atof() library routine in
$Turbo C 2.0. When the following test program is compiled with the "-DWEIRD"
$option, the correct answer is printed. However, when "WEIRD" is not
$#defined, the error message "scanf : floating point formats not linked" is
$printed at runtime. Does the compilation of the sscanf() load in some other
$code needed for atof()? If so, how do I get this code loaded without the
$dummy call to sscanf() (which in the example is never executed).

   I believe the usual solution to this is to include a line of the form

	exp (1);

in your code (any floating-point math call will do).  This forces the
floating point code to be linked in.
