/* This program demonstrates a bug in Borland C++ 3.1 and
   Turbo C++ 1.0.
   
   It comes up with error message:
 scanf : floating point formats not linked
Abnormal program termination

   I can find no way to override this behaviour via a compile
   time option.
   
   If you know the reason for this, please contact Paul Edwards,
   3:711/934{at}fidonet.
