printf on a very small floating point number

[CBFalconer]

I have attempted to look up the % flags. Apparently, when I ran
the code in the debugger, the values are indeed zero, not just a
very small number. It looks like I don't have a good way to time
function execution time.

That is doubtful, but would depend on the code you used to install
the number. Show the code for a reasonable answer.

The only way to get accurate timings, is machine specific.

Is he worrying about execution time, which is highly machine
specific, and thus off-topic. I assumed he was worrying about
displaying a zero for a small value.

any good reference should explain these. Dinkum's
website is pretty good or K&R for a dead tree
version
