WIki Failures

    The wiki seems to have several places with false information. For example:
    "Note: These numbers might be defined as doubles. Doubles (I believe) are when there are two decimal places. Therefore, even when your number does not reach 2 decimal places, fill it in with zeros. For example, 4 > 4.00 and .2 = 0.20. "

    In http://the-powder-toy.wikispaces.com/Coding-Tutorial


    Doubles are not when there are two decimal places. Double is a type of the size(often. Might vary on different architectures and compilers) 8 bytes.

    Has nothing to do with decimals.

    I was thinking that this could become a thread where you point out mistakes in the wiki.

    Really? My friend told me that that's what doubles were once..sorry.
    I did rewrite much of the stuff trying to make it clearer, but if I made any mistakes, I would like to know about them and apologize in advance.
