Things We Have No Control Over

We really want your experience with MOSES to be pleasant and rewarding, and we try very hard to make this possible. However, there are some topics related to the operation of the software where we simply have no control. The list below identifies some of these topics. We wish we could change these things to make your MOSES experience even better, but this is not possible.

Netscape Problems:

We have had reports of Netscape 4.7 causing problems with MOSES, to where MOSES simply does not run. We have been unable to recreate this problem, so the only advice we can offer is to use a different version or browser.

Load Sum Problems:

There are cases when summing loads in MOSES, the sums will not equal zero. This is a fact of the precision of the computer, not a shortcoming in MOSES, which uses double precision in most places.

Floating Point Overflow:

Floating Point Overflows are a fact of life with Pentium processors and Windows based operating systems. This usually means you are using bad data.

Color Scheme on X11 Window Managers:

The color scheme is not the same on all Windows managers, and we have no control over this.

Different Answers on Different Computers:

Different computers will yield different answers for the same input. Normally, these differences are small enough to be ignored, but they are different.
